You have to keep in mind that this is a different application than we are aiming for. They are aiming for low drag, but also with a high emphasis on controlling lift. Therefore, some things are not going to apply to us. Number one is that super low front. We simply can't do this if we want to drive on the road. This, along with the lowering is definitely going to lower the effectiveness of the belly pan. The other thing is that rear spoiler.
