ABOUT
Aerodynamics play a critical role in all of motorsports, from drag racing to NASCAR, Indy and Formula l.
As speeds continue to climb and competition increases, a complete
understanding of aerodynamics is not only important, it is necessary to
win.
Aerodynamics also greatly influence the design of today's
passenger cars and trucks in a never-ending quest to increase fuel
economy without sacrificing performance.
Aerodynamics for Racing and Performance Cars
offers a basic explanation of vehicle aerodynamic theory, principles
and application. All information is presented in easy-to-understand
layman's terms
Included are such subiects as:
form drag, ,drag coefficient,
size and frontal area
the effects ot drag on performance
rolling resistance, top speed, acceleration
aerodynamics & dragsters
reducing drag
ducting, siipstreaming or "drafting" | aerodynamic braking, drag chutess
basic vehicle dynamics
aerodynamic effects on handling
aerodynamic liit
rear spoi|ers, downforce, front air dam
NASCAR roof flaps wings
ground effects and aerodynamic testing |
Auto
engineers, design students, automotive technicians, amateur/
pro fessional racers, pit crews, and ”armcchair racing drivers
will | find
Aerodynamics for Racing and Performance cars a necessary reference for understanding the role aerodynamics ploy in the search for speed and performance.
