Looking for experts in the RC industry... -

I'm a student currently attending Oregon Institute of Technology, and this term I'm enrolled in a Technical Report Writing class (WRI227). We have been asked to come up with topics to write about throughout this term. Because of my recent interest in RC trucks, I would like to write on something related to onroad and/or offroad RC, namely, suspension configurations and design. What I'm looking for is someone who works in the industry who may be able to provide some insight on design process in relation to suspension, and aspects that are considered in this design process. I'm not looking for specific design principles that could give one company an edge over another, but more along the lines to generalities that most people would consider in their design process.
Incidentally, I'm also looking for a "technical reader" who will read the report, and score it accordingly. Not only that, but technical readers can offer help as a resource, or even in the form of just pointing the student in the right direction for information. The one requirement is that the technical reader must be an expert on the topic. Naturally, in my location, it's hard to find an expert on RC suspension locally, and so I hope to find one in the RC industry.
If you can help me, even if it's just by pointing me in the right direction, I would appreciate a PM or something of the sort.
