Once I do have data I will post it here. I do want to try adding some canards as well to see if they improve turn in grip.... I'm just worried with the extra grip in the front that we might have to add a wing at the back as well.

We have done some testing with a remelle cup type roof spoiler. On a back to back test we saw a 5km/h difference in top speed at the Zwartkops circuit. Going from 166km/h to 171km/h.

Thats good info! I assume the increase in speed was WITH the roof spoiler?

Effee: I haven't noticed any difference with or without the holes wrt handling.
