ground effect does work - our most extreme diffuser proposals sucked the belt off the rollers
|
In the 1980s I worked for a computer hardware manufacturer. On Friday afternoons—on company time—we divided into 3 teams and raced the company's 1/10th scale cars in the back parking lot. Yay, team-building.
The car I did the paint and aero on (basically 4 skirted wheels and massive diffuser) would, on the back straight, suck dust out of the asphalt parking lot and leave a trail suspended in the air, like it was on a gravel road.
