Seriously "active" aero


I think he would prefer "The sounds of silence."
 
All this talk about active flaps, harmonic balancing, flat plain cranks, engineering feats, cutting edge design, aerodynamics, great achievements and applied technologies makes me think about the mother of engineering “Necessity”. At some point we need to step back and look how true needs were met through good sound “Seeing a problem and coming up with a solution”.

This is the kind of “necessity” solutions we need!

I wonder how the wing attaches. If you saw the pictures elsewhere of the car in the garage the bumper is on the floor but the wing is still attached to the bumper. With that much downforce it has to attach to the main frame somewhere.
 
I would refer aero questions to Stormcat!

Was this determined already about the air brake?
 
Are you saying the new GT can drive upside down?

There's a rumor saying it can south of the equator ...

^so that's how the guney flap sticks up and moves down, 3/4 of the lower skin pivots to 'change its shape'.... Not sure of any other car that's ever done that. Amazing.

Love the wing... I wonder if they are already manufacturing parts for the new 2017 GT's.
