Did you ever wonder if those aerokits stuff like bumper carnards, splitters, rear wing and diffusers actually work ? I wonder at times as well. I had always believe that one will see the improvements by these aerokits once you go fast enough. The question is how fast is fast enough for all these fancy bodykit add-on before they really work?
Below is a documentary by the Option magazine network on the Tsukuba Time Attack's Cyber Evo. They created an experiment to show the amount of downforce and how much these aerokits improved it. There is a comparison at the end of the video showing the effects without the standard bumper and without the rear wing.
Air speed in their test was 25m/s (90km/h or 55.9mph).
What say you after watching this?
