I was just feeling restless and wanted to see some immediate results when I got out the cardboard. I think I could go for a nascar look, real low to the ground but I don't think it will work that well here in Norther Michigan. The snow gets deep here.
At DARKO this year,owner Layne Christensen warned about airdams with too much downforce-induced drag (ei. 'splitters').
Even my nose,with zero splitter is a bit 'dirty' that way.
You don't want to overdo it!
