Staples' first law of Aerodynamics !!

Post by Bladerider »

I have been meaning to discuss this for some while, but not got around to it,

One of the things I noticed a couple of months back at the monthly meet at Snetterton when our illustrious leader last brought the skyline out to play was the aero package that he had put together. Indeed he has even mentioned these evolutionary additions to nissans famous sportscar in his projects thread. He cites a desire for more downforce, more grip, as well as better wheel clearance and numerous benefits that weighed heavy on his mind prompting much inward debate and scouring of the internet searching for a suitable solution. Which presented itself at Snetterton and brings me to the point of this post.

I was hoping that someone technical could illustrate to me the thinking behind these aerodynamic appendages and what I truly believe to be the inspiration behind them, as I have clearly outlined where I believe this genesis came from..............

About time you posted them pics James, only you could do them justice with some added words from Bladey :lol:

I think it looks a little unsymmetrical tho and could do with a 'Biffa' on the other side to even it out :twisted:

Talking about altering and making changes to cars, when i payed a visit to Beaulieu the other day, i noticed Bladey had made a few modifications already for next years EDC series. :D :lol:
Although I think the finish on the paint job wasn't up to much, abit of an orange peel effect!!!

Hahahahahhahahahahha :D
They've even modelled it on the Bladeyman himself (he of the rugged complexion and barrel shaped physique)

The best thing is, this wasn't even prompted :D
