The
parallel tunnels are at odds with the bellmouth nature of the actual car
(below).
Looking
aft, the gearbox hump is in the middle and flanked by (in this case)
two sets of turning vanes (long and short ones which is different than
the images below which show only a short TV).
This
shows what the planform profile should look like. One additional
detail is that the trailing edge of the area of the underfloor that covers
the gearbox should be trimmed back (to about the point of the drive shaft).
There's a surprisingly large amount of the gearbox that is exposed to the
underbody airflow.
Also
note how much of the rear upright detail that can be seen. Note the
single pair of short TVs.
This gives a good idea to what
the front diffuser looked like and how it exited out the front wheel well.
The MkIII was the first car that exited the air from its front diffuser
in this manner and really led the way to the aerodynamic potential for
this area of the car.
Basically
this area needs to be blended back removing the initial vertical.Interested in upgrading your M&S Hobbies Toyota Eagle MkIII? Check out my Shapeways store for an underfloor and front diffuser upgrade.
