I've been watching the racing, everyone has wings fitted now, so I'm putting some on the Tuono to see what all the fuss is about.
I'm starting with the back, as I have a nice solid Herpe and Becker mounting plate and also it's nearer the garage door.
But what angle should they be?

These Heath Robinson aero pagages dont always work out the way you hope.

They wont to fek all Tony, no aerofoil shape, the air needs to go over a hump on the top surface which in effect slows it down, whilst the air flow under the wing stays the same thus causing low preasure under the wing which pushes it up...Giving lift.tony.mon wrote: ↑Sun Jul 04, 2021 12:23 pm I've been watching the racing, everyone has wings fitted now, so I'm putting some on the Tuono to see what all the fuss is about.

Obviously you need an upside down wing with the 'Hump' on the bottom so the low pressure is above thus forcing the wing down... & you'll need end plates to stop the air ''escaping''...
& good luck with fitting the sliding skirts if your after more downforce...


On the race bikes they are on the front to give more front grip & stop wheelies...
I take it you were very bored today either that or going more

I looked up the price of Arial atoms. I can't afford a molecule, never mind a whole bar of the stuff.
