Trophy front spoiler plus splitter

Would wood be heavier Ozzy

I am going to let TB see what he can do, fingers crossed :yesnod:

Just to clarify :oops:

If you adding the splitter for purely cosmetic reasons that's all well and good but I have performance concerns.

Anyone here know what the affect will be on the front downforce, because I have a feeling that combining the 2 could well be detrimental, which wouldn't be good (you don't want your front end reverting to it's original feel).

It's a bit like the early airplane designers thinking more wings was better - you don't see many biplanes these days

Recent tests of the famous Fokker Triplane (a la Red Baron) from WW1 has shown that the middle wing did practically nothing to increase the plane's performance - so, frequently, less is more regarding lift and, therefore, downforce.

So who's the aerodynamic expert here?

I think SS is only interested in aesthetics, we will see after i have got the Glass fibre and filler on it. After making a smooth arc for the front edge of the splitter I am still stumped on how to mount it though.

Maybe Jan should change her forum name to "The Red Baron(ess)"
:yesnod:

There isa works splitter that must be about 10 cms extended from the front of the car. I've seen a pic and it looked ugly and very easy to crunch. It does give you some idea though of how much the F benifits from redirecting the airflow away from the underside. That pic was on a car for sale so I cant find it now.

It is the aesthetics, I am such a poser :oops:
I did think about taking all the mounts off so it is just flat, and just fixing it straight onto the bottom with Flexi or whatever it is called, then it would not alter the dynamics and just have a smooth black bottom

lol I like being SS, double entendre

It will be interesting to see how this works out.

I do like the look

It will either look fab :yesnod: or be a total disaster that others can learn from :pinch:
