next step is to add downforce - wings, front canards, vent the radiators upwards. vent the wheel wells (wheel wells accumulate air with a high pressure point at the top of the wheel just forward of the wheel centre line - vent the wheel wells up and you convert lift to downforce). beware downforce - the faster you go the better it works - chicken out and slow down and you lose downforce which means you lose traction ...

TRK's comments reminded me of this thread. worth a bump. Brad's comment about adding 200 deg air to the brakes is something I had been wondering about - best to duct it to the middle and out the top of the bumper? I'm not afraid to cut a vent in the fender of my 2000 S, but would really want to have a valid model before I'd do it.
