Car Aerodynamic Testing for Road and Track

Book excerpt: At last - a book that shows you how to test the aerodynamics of your road or track car. Measure downforce, lift and drag - all with low cost and easily obtained equipment. See airflow behavior, measure aerodynamic pressures causing lift and drag, and measure airflow speed - even under the car. No more guessing, using rules of thumb or just copying what others have done. Develop undertrays and diffusers that work, set wing angles to give the right results, and optimise drag.Practical, down to earth and low in cost, the techniques covered in this book will revolutionize how you modify the aero of your road or track car.
