Woody, that's always the trade off isn't it...just wanted to know if you (or anyone else here) have any thoughts on adding to front end DF for Derek's effort. We've had a discussion some time back about front end splitters (for aesthetics only in that discussion) but might that be a possibility (is it legal in D's class?) to help with off setting drag from rear end spoiler/wings?
I have some friends in F1 land who are connected to teams...I don't what I can find out but i'll see if they have some resources they can point D to.
Derek...having looked at the point system in your class...now I can see how your mods/weight reduction and such have put you in this fix...will the wings/splitters just add to the problem or are you well within (low enough points) where aero upgrades won't move you up to "B"?
