Aero discussions

I know I don't talk much on here but my opinion is why change things? I get the thinking of dirty air is bad but how low these cars are even without a nose you'll have at least a little dirty air. The second thing is the noses on these cars are to get more air on them so if you make the noses smaller wouldn't that make the worse before it got better. The third thing is if having a small nose and smaller spoiler wouldn't no nose and no spoiler be better? How come so many people dislike modifieds than? That is what people are describing.

If the nose doesn't catch as much air, you will adjust the setup to rebalance the car. Then when you get behind a car, you won't lose as much.

Mastersbilt I get that. what I'm saying is that no matter how big the nose is the car in front is still making a void in the air. The only difference is that the guy in the back has less air getting to his nose because it's now smaller

Correct. But the less dependent the car is on the air, the less dirty air kills the car. You cannot completely eliminate the problem. It would exist if we raced dune buggys. It just wouldn't be noticeable.

I would imagine taming down the nose would reduce this coil bind bump stop on the front and jack the left rear in the air with the insane rebound or air shock whatever...has to be a rough ride the way they are pinned to the ground...

doesn't look like its going to get any better with the new md3 evolution 2 nose.

Use to be the rule making bodies told the manufacturer what was acceptable, now whatever they dream up they modify the rules accordingly. Tail wagging dog, totally out of control.

MD3 today released their newest nose, creeping further toward the wedge and aero dependence.

Beefed up and raised the left side even more.
More clearance built in on the right side so it can be mounted even lower.
It's safe to say the wedge cars are officially back. Let em run wild!

Dam look at how much they cost time you ship it over size freight 450 bucks plus. I like the old noses cost size some square tubing rolled plastic rivets your done

[STRONGERTHANDIRT]

Ban MD3 noses.

[Hoosier_Dirt]

Ban MD3 noses.

Bingo!!!!! That's where I would start!

Bodies and noses should at least be symmetrical...
