On a sidenote, do you remember the livery of the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VI on WRC?

You read my mind lol. I always like the WRC Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VI.

When you mentioned Marlboro red, while having a Mitsubishi engine, what else should you expect? You know, the Evo VI was so iconic in the hands of Tommi Mäkinen

Update:
First pic is the ride height.
Second pic is the rear floor and wheel tubs.
Third pic is the rear floor.
and fourth pic is crappy rendition of my side skirts/rear wheel spats. I just found out that this will help with downforce more than improving the cd. Still learning the ways of aero

One of the things I plan to ask Gary from the A2 windtunnel about, is the importance of flush wheels.
Both the Camaro and the 'Blowfish' Cuda have large wheelwell gaps, yet are .20 / .21 cD
What puzzles me even more, is that there was so much airflow in the wheel well area on that Camaro, that "Moon disks dropped the Cd by 2 to 4 counts ", yet no effort was given / needed to clean up this area around the wheelwell gap.
So you may not even need side skirts.
( It's like everything in aerodynamics comes back with a surprise ! )

Must confess neither moon discs or side skirts are my cup of tea on road-going vehicles, unless it's either stock or stealth.

Any update on the Camaro? What about the separate oil system for the turbo?
