Good job Spud.

Don't take this the wrong way but you should correct the discription on the website, "to prevent are circulating in diff" now I know it's "air" but somepeople can be an ar**.

Cheers Jimmy, the error of my spelling has been corrected.

BTW "discription" is spelt Description....... Couldn't resist it.

Took the car out last night and it seems to work as intended, the car seems more stable at higher speed and certainly pulls better from 60 to 100mph - quite noticably, and braking at speed is a bit more stable. Can't speak about downforce but it wasn't really intended for that will have to take it on the track - next week hopefully, Teesside track booked for race car setup......

Don't really want extra grip on the rear though as there is already plenty and would have to increase front quite a bit to re-balance the car.

Regards....Andrew

Obviously the 60 to 100 test was on a private road as you wouldn't possibly be doing that speed on public roads officer!

How would the open sides affect turbulence? Would it be an easy thing for someone at home to fill in the sides if it requires it?

have you got a flat floor under the engine as this is another place that could give a not so nice air brake.

If you read the description M it mentions the open sides and some people may prefer to fill them in depending on individual taste and pieces cut from side panels could be used. Tried mine last night and all was fine, it may circulate in from the sides a bit but it's 95% better than it was. Certainly more stable at speed since there is no air blowing around in the rear area.

Bobby the engine bay under floor is open but this could be covered in ali depending on peoples choice, the tray is not really to provide ground effect but mainly to enclose the rear area.

You wouldn't want to get air Bourne on the crest of a hill with a flat plate under the engine bay, remember all those old f1 cars flipping over backwards?
