    Misc Vintage Racing Clips

    That is an aero problem. That great big, and highly efficient nine lives wing created a ton of low pressure above the deck which drew very hot exhaust gases up the back of the car. The modified exhaust and tune contributed some by creating a hotter than normal exhaust plume, but the aero is the...

    Internal Body Aerodynamics

    Yes, the rear calipers are on the rear on a Gen V Viper. But, they are on the front in the C8 Z06.

    Don’t see these much anymore

    A little. it was pretty famous for a number of years at Elkhart Lake/Road America. There were three built almost alike - numbers 23. 24, and 25. I have talked to the owner of number 24 several times. The owner of this car passed away a couple of years ago. The car is pretty cool. I am...

    EXTERNAL AERODYNAMICS

    Thanks Jim. It is Kevlar on bottom for scrape resistance, foam core, and carbon fiber on top. Should be plenty strong. Yes, the splitter extension is removable. It can be replaced with any extension made for the Viper ACR. I have 3 different widths and materials, and I am building another...

    EXTERNAL AERODYNAMICS

    Finally finished the front undertray for my C-1 track car. Bought some rubber strakes for a '23 Corvette Z06/Z07 and cut them up to help guide air to a couple of the diffuser tunnels. The front tunnels empty outside of barge boards that guide the air toward the outboard side pod diffuser...

    EXTERNAL AERODYNAMICS

    Now that we are on the subject, here is an experiment I intend to conduct. I have already built diffuser tunnels between the frame and rocker panels/side skirts. Air is fed to them via the front fender splash panel behind the tire and barge boards along the frame. I built CF plugs for my...
