There is way to much lift, that will cause a problem with speed

@DaBearsOO54 actually when i raced it it went down the track just fine exept once it went sideways it went really fast but not the fastest out of my class i think second or third place the reason of that is it was just a bit too heavy

Did you do any tests? did you come up with a better desing?

@mrcornchip i did not test the sesighn we were not allowed but afer lookinup many vidios and web pages of the most aerodynamic shape i incorper ated it in to my desighn the shape was a tear drop

im guessing.. u took the design of an airplane wing.. this dragster has too much lift and it will flip when on high speed

Fluid flow in which the fluid travels smoothly or in regular paths. The velocity, pressure, and other flow properties at each point in the fluid remain constant. Laminar flow over a horizontal surface may be thought of as consisting of thin layers, all parallel to each other, that slide over each other. It is common only where the flow channel is relatively small, the fluid is moving slowly, and its viscosity is relatively high. , or look at APTERA !

isn't the teardrop shape THE BEST SHAPE FOR AN AERODYNAMIC VEHICLE?!

and no big manufacturer wants to build a car like this because of $ interests?

I don't see in you car the true teardrop shape/airfoil!

Reverse the damn thing : big rounded front and a very long slippery tail!

That will for sure minimize the low pressure zone wich appears behind the car and induces drag /slows down the vehicle!

Or copy the SCHLOR PILLBUG from 1937 and your car will be the fastest!

Keep in mind: laminar flow !
