Wings and driftting

Recommended Posts

just a thought, why don't drifters run V shaped wings? ie when looking at the car from above, the wing would make a V, rather than a straight line across the back of the car.

 

That way, when a car is drifting at an angle of say 30 degrees, one half of the wing could be set up so its facing the air flow properly, and so provide a meaningful amount of downforce.

 

or even, a wing that rotates to match the airflow... stranger things have happened in aviation...
