How Close To The Track?

[YELLA BRICK]

Adding a splitter and side sails will add to your frontal down force.

'Sokay, I get that often ! Then watch their expression when i tell 'em what it REALLY is !

Oh you want the metal 2 off the ground you want to fill with sheet plastic to about an inch.

Just remember folks that if the tech guy can bounce it up and down and it hits the track...you fail tech!!!

Gotcha, thanks for the suggestions! My final tweak ended up being 2-1/2" off the ground, suspension compressed won't hit the ground, and winglets on the side thanks to Yella Brick

I used 2 1/2 also with the idea that "that's a lot". I can't get it to hit terra firma but I've lost a bit of weight. It might depend on how heavy the tech inspector is! We're all screwed if Charles is teching.

Just a note for everyone when putting plastic on the lower parts of the nose make sure the 75lb factory hood is installed!!! tin snips engaged!!!!!

I'll get some in a little bit. I gotta get the Maty's shirts made today or I maybe in for a kick to the nuts. My little winglets aret as pretty. To bad I made a cheap corvette look cheaper.

That's what cheap Corvettes are good for !

I cut 25lbs of inner structure out, scraped out 15 pounds of deadener, installed a lighter tube structure and it's STILL heavier than heck !
As per the plastic skirting, after seeing photos of Open Road Racing cars at speed, that had single layer plastic front dams that were all pushed out of shape, I double layered mine and popped the heck out of them. The rippling is from exposure to ambient heat but deformation at speed doesn't happen. Single layered front dams that are all deformed from air pressure is playing all sorts of poopoo on frontal air flow control.
