Reply to "Ground Effects"

This week's Guest Professor for our "Ground Effects" Continuing Education On-Line Seminar is:

Peter Matchet

He's making a few more comments on Ground Effects and you can see him right in your ownliving room on Speed Channel doing the commentary for F-1 Decade, a program that cover's this week's Formula One race ten years ago. The first episode is on tonight, Fri 3/18/05, and he has teriffic insight into this stuff. The program repeats all weekend long, so tune in and test your new knowledge against his.

If you tune into Speed Channel you'll see F-1 qualifying, practice, and the race from Malaysia, along with 100,000,000 other viewers worlwide. You may find the things you see and hear about a little more interesting, after having attended this seminar up to this point.

Only we have a secret. We don't have to have a wind tunnel to measure and test ground effects, do we? We can use little clear hoses filled with colored water and a road test to determine what's happening to the air under, around and in the engine bay of our Pantera's.
