Re: Ground effects and down force (score: 1): Author: Joshua Hadler <jhadler@rmi.net>; Date: Mon, 04 Jan 1999 16:22:52 -0700; I'm going out on a limb here, I'm a rocket scientist, not an aerodynamics engineer. But I seem to recall that ground effect for an aircraft is a function of wing area vs. distance from the ground. Th; /html/autox/1999-01/msg00099.html (7,957 bytes)
4. Re: Ground effects and down force (score: 1): Author: "Jason Powell" <fizzx@wi.net>; Date: Mon, 4 Jan 1999 23:05:11 -0600; Typically a car starts encountering significant aerodynamic drag around 40mph. To create "real down force" at lower speeds you'll need a very large airfoil...more like a freakin' huge airfoil :-) To; /html/autox/1999-01/msg00110.html (8,333 bytes)

7. Re: Ground effects and down force (score: 1): Author: Cliff Loh <vcmc001@ibm.net>; Date: Tue, 05 Jan 1999 12:43:43 -0800; WRT actual ground effect (not wings), simply lowering your car will generate some downforce. It is noticeable at highway speeds (60mph ad up). For most production-based cars, you'll have to rely on f; /html/autox/1999-01/msg00134.html (9,461 bytes)
