Front Splitter with flip front

Post by Antnicuk »

Does anyone run a front lip/splitter with a flip front, i was going to have ago at trying to make one but i think it would be tricky with the flip front.
Help! just starting out

It's not difficult unless the chassis height is low then you'd be unable to open the bonnet. I don't think it needs one unless you can top 160mph which is what Tim clocked on a road in Wales using his original 3.89 diff . You need a light touch though :wink:

my diff is a 3.09, at 6950 rpm the car would be doing 235 mph with my current wheels on it. Not that i would get there but i would hate to think how fast it would go. What do mean by need a light touch :?: :?:

Not gripping the steering wheel or you'd easily lose it , being light at the front at that speed :wink:
