 Looking
up into the front diffuser. The exit is quite free of obstructions. |
 The
intake in front of the rear wheel is utilized to cool the rear brakes.
The duct ends at the rear wheel and does not continue through the rear
of the car. Note the gurney lip on the exit of the front underbody.
This gurney creates a low pressure area that encourages the diffuser air
to exit out the side of the car. |
 Of
interest in this shot is the duct that begins at the rear wheel and exits
out the rear of the car either side of the rear diffuser. Interacting
with the engine exhaust which is directed into this duct, the idea is to
use the low pressure suction created by the engine exhaust's high speed
flow to suction off the high pressure created by the spinning rear wheel
as well as siphoning off the engine bay's flow through from the coolers. |
 Looking
into the exit from the rear we can see where the exhaust pokes into the
duct enhancing the low pressure and encouraging the air flow from the engine
bay to exit out the rear of the car. Andy Thorby, "This works quite
well at sucking the air out of the engine bay, mainly, of course, the air
that has passed through the radiators." |
