[QUOTE="racebronco2, post: 16347709, member: 11854"] I did do a lot of track testing so I know it works open tracking and high speed events. I did not do any wind tunnel testing. Paul Brown of Tiger Racing told me he did wind tunnel testing and his similar hood did provide down force. At the time I was on my first design which only lowered the recessed portion 2 extra inches. I told him the I thought about cutting the recessed portion out more. His response was it would create more turbulence because the open area is below the air going over the hood. It would be better to add louvers from the front opening back. With that design each louver would create a high pressure at each vent pulling the low pressure out from the under the hood. Some of you may remember when I went to the mile event. I asked if i could compete against the C6ZO6. I was told our cars were like bricks and I was on drugs if I think I could out mph C6ZO6's since they are top end monsters. Most C6ZO6 did around 165 to 168mph. 3 of us went. 550rwhp whipple Terminator 161mph 480 rwhp Terminator my first design 162mph Me at 520rwhp Terminator current design 172.xx Was 1 mph behind a stock ZR1 and 4 mph slower than a modded ZR1 [/QUOTE]
