The thread on aerodynamics/downforce for FCsteve

Well, OTish, what could you change on a Ryan G splitter to give you downforce?

step 1.

read above links.

And honestly, the splitter wont give you much more downforce just driving around. It is usually just used to help channel the air under the car vs over the car for a pressure differential at high speeds.. There have been no studies on this forum to prove the benefits of a splitter, as they are probably nothing. just purely cosmetic.

This is a BMW ALMS race car, its RWD. Notice anything?

this is what you need.



i heard a guy on here has one that he just painted black, for longevity, but because its just a wing, it adds more down force.
