Default Interesting Fact

Didn't know where to put this but check it out.

On a level straight road with head light doors up at 70mph.
14.5% throttle at 24 kpa map
with headligh doors down.
12.8% throttle at 20 kpa map.

Very repeatable.
Sure shows the drag caused by headlight doors.

Hmmm Interesting.. You know i always had a feeling there was a significant amount of Drag cause by the Headlights being in the up position. Was just to lazy to test it... you should make an air intake system that utilizes the air being forced into the door air..lol
