    Underpantsniper The shape of the spoiler is basically an upside down aeroplane wing, so instead of creating more air pressure on the bottom edge of the wing, which causes lift, the higher air pressure is created on top of the wing, forcing it down. Taping off the gap will disrupt the the air creating the low pressure, so more higher pressure air will flow over the top of the spoiler, creating more downforce. This produces more tyre friction etc etc blah blah.

    @@bkinurface Not strictly true. A Spoiler is there to 'spoil' the airflow. It is not shaped like an inverse wing, nor does it produce downforce (this is the difference between a rear wing and a spoiler). Instead, the purpose of the spoiler is to reduce lift generated by air flowing down off the roof and down behind the car. It prevents lifting at high speed and improvs the car's drag coefficient. Tyre frictional losses increase very little with speed, however aerodynamic drag increases exponentially. Therefore the faster you go the more impact a lower drag coefficient would make. In a straight line, downforce is pretty meaningless hence the aim of DRS, reducing downforce and drag to increase top speed.

    Exactly, that spoiler is designed to add maybe a little bit of downforce but primarily to help with the problem of the low pressure area on that slab sided rear end. By taping up that gap they're creating an even greater low pressure area which means more drag. I'm surprised no one there didn't tell them that was a dumb idea.

    Taped up front grill and that filter is just pulling in hot air now. Get a cold air feed directly out through the front of the grill and it'll definitely help acceleration all the way down the runway from start to finish. Pull the bottom grill out to open up the intercooler more. And soak it with water before the run. Clutching at straws here but worth a bash 😁
