Airdam / Undertray / Splitter Construction Ideas

[Sean T.]

So would one of these be good for aerodynamics? Or was the point just to show the techniques and materials?

Either way, pretty cool links

NASCAR has found that the splitter makes an excellent lawn-mower when they get into the infield grass.I like 'em,and if you've been following the development of the Chevy VOLT,you'll see that GM is trying to get air AROUND the nose to the sides,something the splitter is great at.------------------ For us,unless we can move them up for urban driving and lower for the highway,we'll have to be careful with vertical clearance so as not to tear them off on some driveway ramp.Great photos,thanks!

Yes on both accounts to a certain extent and thanks.

I posted the link mostly for the techniques and materials but generally the racing airdams are larger than what we would want from a drag reduction standpoint. For drag reduction, the airdam and undertray should not extend so far down that they add more frontal area.
