You leave the wheels where they are and add wheel fairings, or drop the car to within an inch of the road, as the University of Michigan did with their recent sub-Cd 0.10 solar race car.
It's the closest we can come to 'retractable landing gear.'  |
Well I definitely can’t lower the car unless I can an adjustable air suspension for raising the height too during heavy winter snow storms and ski resort driving
I love my wheel skirts but I can already tel they will be a problem in severe rain and snow driving, so best winter mods besides mirror removal will have to be smoother under body and diffuser, separation traps/mini box cavity, and other possible things. I wonder if the wheel flarings could be mounted with some really strong Velcro that’ll hold up to aero forces, but also be easy to remove and put on and off if I’m snow driving…
