Hi guys, been awhile. Out here on the road. These 18wheels keep turnin'.. got robbed in Dallas. Lost my computer, phones such. Getting re/grouped. Co. Does not allow self protection. Anyway, haven't forgot my Vette friends. Go by Bollin Green all the time, just never seem to find time to stop. But I will!! Pics and all from museum. Moved my home terminal to Memphis. Walked over to Graceland. What a trip. Have lots of ideas with aero work. Not quite ground effects, but undercar flow. Sketching up some ideas, in truck stops. already gettin ready winter. Mountains always interesting. Old Vette safe sound in Minnesota garage. Anyway, my thoughts are towards undercar aero/flow. Checking out new Saleen undercar.. not so much downforce, more pressure changes. H/L pressure. So anyway. Typing on new S4. Truck stop il. Like I said: "I be Back", best.

Sorry to hear about your bad luck. Hope you have a safe trip home. I recall a few threads about under car splitters and whatnot that I've read in the past. I'll look for them later if you are interested.

ya, do not believe the road was ever safe. It's a crazy job. But OTR. suits me. Just love wakin up on top of mountain, then dinner in desert. I blew a couple tires outside Laredo while back. 04:00, kept goin', figured I only one out there without an ak. nothing much left of wheels. took poor kid hours to grind wheels off. It's all good. From Danmark I got the name Stig. Friends that know me, just call me sig. Looking forward to developing aero work on C4. really got all power. Girl won't ride in her. Even though I promised not to scare her .. much" |

oh ya, most interested. got Simon McBeaths book here, "Competition car Downforce",, it's dated. So much is recently done undercar. Effects are logarithm increased in ground effect. I must laugh when see wings on low speed cars. Only drag. My experience, wing effects work 130+mph. Downforce can be generated lowspeed, but drag co/efficients, counterproductive. C4 still most neg pressure co/efficient aero car. improvements, I believe. Undercar. My thoughts. |
