Have you made changes to your 914 body or are you thinking of it?
Here are a number of computer models comparing different body modifications to the 914 and the effects that they have on the cars aerodynamic drag. http://www.cassidy-online.com/porsche914/aerodynamic_aids |

Well... You're right about the "no downforce when accelerating through corners" problem. But the tech was banned by numerous race organizations. Including the modern FIA.
But now we have the ability to rig a moving wing to a linear actuator and wire up a time delay circuit. Something like 1,5 seconds of braking switches the wing into downforce position and it will stay there for the next 2 seconds after letting off the brake. BAM! Downforce throughout the whole corner. |
