The cars normally seen in this forum are all about low drag not high down-force, although my own pickup truck features both.

Delving into the taboo of race cars and down force, I can at least appreciate the way the air is provided a clean release edge at the aft section.

FYI: I went ahead an posted a few images in an online Porsche parts supply resource forum.

Random TRANSPORTATION pictures - Page 1715 - Pelican Parts Technical BBS

Here is the section of that forum which deals with Autocross and Track racing:

Could you please post a side view of the project so that we can do an aero-template overlay?

“Over 300 iterations have been tested on the bodywork using CFD to achieve, what we hope, will be a very competetive aerodynamic package.
Could we see a few of the CFD images if they have been published before?
