The car is almost complete for Bonneville except for some last minute aerody=
namic
enhancements. An aerodynamic consultant has recommended an air dam like
on a Nascar for the front of the car. It would add 2.5 square feet to
the car frontal cross section. I looked on the internet and saw no TR3's

the car from that of the original TR2. Does this recommendation make
