Allowing cars to follow closer around corners, do to the fact cars still ceate downforce when chasing car in front of them. I suppose there will not be any drafting then? Hmmm maybe if they were following with the nose of their car at the rear tire not tucked under the rear wing. Now there looks like less drag hence faster cars. This should be moved to the "track" section.

There is supossed to be a new kind of racing, almost like F1. The cars are all the same and it is based on driver skill...I'll find a link ASAP.

are you talking about A1GP?

Yeah I am, this looks SO interesting. I wonder if Speed will be showing it.

So does that mean we will start seeing "ricers" with split wings?

No I dont think so. There is no point to it, let alone the ricer wings are always single piece and have NO fucntion other then looks.

You can hang your wet cloths until it dry. Can also be a small table. :biggrin:

I don't know alot about physics, especially in racing, but my first thought looking at those picks would be with all that downforce, if you tuck in behind the leader, wouldn't that make it easier for the car to lift up off the ground? say you are travelling behind someone at 200+mph and he taps the brakes and you make contact... could all the downforce lift the car up and flip you??

just an uneducated thought...
