Hi.
On our current race car, the shroud behind the radiator has been removed and as such has left a rather large opening into the trunk. Well, people have suggested I should create some type of duct system to get the air out of the trunk(boot) or it could create a lifting effect at higher speeds.
I will be running this car frequently above 100mph.
So, my question is around the shape of the duct. I was going to follow a standard Dallara mod and duct it out near the front of the car.
However, my dad was over and suggested I make it longer and vent out near the window instead.
See the following pic
What are your thoughts? I could see how the longer vent would allow some potential of tuning the down force..
