    Internal Body Aerodynamics

    ...early in the video are what I have on my '56 - between the outside of the frame rail and the inside of the side body skirt. I have the rear wing adjusters on a bellcrank assembly with the future possibility of adding an aircraft trim motor to control the wing AOA. It would take something...

    Internal Body Aerodynamics

    ...rapidly or unexpectedly in a near-the-limit cornering situation can get your attention! In the rear I use a spoiler to lengthen the deck, a wing, and a diffuser. They should work together to both create downforce and smooth and reaccelerate the flowing air to blend with the free airstream...

    New Toy

    Hey Kid, It is a 2016 Viper ACR with the extreme aero package. 645 HP, big Brembo CCBs, and a big wing/splitter/diffuser. It has an even bigger splitter extension and vertical diffuser extensions that are not installed in these photos - not enough ground clearance for street driving. I...

    Narrowed C4 rear mods

    ...with axles articulated at the diff but not the wheel, axle and wheel hub are solid. Single trailing arm, and transverse leaf springs, even the wing style body mount. Some similarities to both C3 and C4 rears. I like the C4 because of price and availability. Not sure if it's lighter than a C3...

    Looking for infos on rear spoiler design

    ...rear spoiler design/aerodynamic. I got some remains from my college fluid dynamic courses and I had to deal with it all along my game programmer career (realtime Navier-Stokes solver), so I'm not afraid a paper with equation. I just want to go further than the "planes' wing upside down"...

    BB water pump pulley replacement.
