 The
'01 Cadillac LMP was never going to be more than a subtle revision of the
'00 R&S designed original. The time frame and budget simply didn't
allow for it. The biggest area of concentration centered on the way
cooling air flow was managed. Where as on the original chassis the
major cooling airflow was taken in via large NACA ducts in the sidepods,
the revised car employed ducts inboard of the front wheel fenders working
in conjunction with modified ducts in the car's flank. Also note
that the grill is no longer a functioning grill but simply a sticker. |
 The
radiator receives a split flow, from the duct inboard of the front wheel
and via the revised flank NACA duct. The radiator air exhausts is
also split. Some exhausts out the side of the car, some out the rear
of the car via the engine bay. |
 Note
the vertical gurney that helps wheel well extraction. |
