Jason,sorry i missed your post up there, but to answer you, yes, i run it bare, running low is the secret, and lots of castor, i run it at 40mm as my regs dictate, a bit less actually, ive cut off or clearanced all the low points, and i also exploit the open deck technique, whereby the underflow air is used to flow into the normally turbulent air behind the car, killing drag and lift, you see it on many sports proto types etc, my deck lid and rear panel are massively vented to exhaust the airflow from over the motor, the deck lid hinge panel is gone for the same reason, the engine bay is also open to air, another huge plus for the wasser motor. does it work? well its a very stable platform,and i feel an outright win is on the cards next season. we'll see, there's no hiding place out there.
