aerohead — Can you document Morelli's wheelwells?
I saw it looking for Redpoint's braking data.I don't have it with me.I do recall that between the wheelwells and the wheels,there were 'fans' built into the wheels,and accompanying vanes in the wheelhouse which could induce flow.That and a ring-vortex being shed at the separation line which was beneficial to drag.I'm locked out of PhotoBucket unless I pay extortion money,and that ain't happening!
PS Didn't Porsche use some sort of turbo 'fan' wheel on a race car in the 1970's?
