Think we were onto something here Direct post link, about a hinged Kamm http://ecomodder.com/forum/showthrea...tml#post324653

Second pic. Changed it last friday tho

Did you experiment with different lengths for your side skirts? or just jump into the lowest skirts you could get away with? lower the better?
Looking good, MX-3 looking for sure! lol have you thought about making a slight rounded or angle piece at the trailing edge of the kamm. i got the same washback effect with the original Kamm i started out with, then angled the 1"in trailing edge down about 10-20degrees, and it got rid of some of it, but not all.
