Really nice collection !! And really mesmerizing to watch
Thank you!
dat F1 gif tho
You can feel the downforce just watching this gif
It’s amazing that the other wings create quite a lot of turbulence but the f1 wing just like scoops the air smoothly. Haha.
Unfortunately the smoke there isn’t real
It’s from this video : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jYaIXWNOa_A
How is he keeping his hat on? Mine flew away when I drove with the top down at just 30mph
Lol, that picture probably taken in the first 3 seconds….
Wind on the hat for downforce so it’s not taken away broooo :D
I think having the cars’ wheels spin while in the wind-tunnel is important, as the shape of the wheel and just the rotation of the tire can influence how the air flows around it.
This is what I want to do with my life. Design the aero on cars. Specifically race cars
that XL1 is only so fuel efficient because it has been fiddled with to produce such low emissions
nah.. I don’t have any similar gif, but here’s a gif of a miata rowing
You dont see that everyday XD
They see me rowin, they hatin
Can we see some functional area and diffusers at work?
You really put lots of effort into this! Great post
Y’all should make an article about how this kind of technology has changed over the years. I bet it would be a dynamic article.
Believe it or not, I’m in a process of making that article. I believe it will be a good one.
