348 Rear wing

there was a post about 2 or 3 weeks ago about a specific rear wing. to each his own, but i personally like the car without a wing

 

Best wing I've seen is on Andy's 348.

Is that a handcuff hanging out of the front end where the tow hook goes? must have been getting kinky with a 355...naughty 348...

 

Does anyone have more pics of Andy's 348? I would love to see a rear shot. I know, I know, that's what she said.

 

Here ya go.

Nice! Strait pipes?

 

Me thinks so.

 

Waaay more than straight pipes in that bad boy. Tell me you guys have seen it. His engine shots are my wall paper.

 

+ 1

 

the wing, stripes, wheels....very nice indeed!

 

OK...you clearly don't know Andy's stuff

Thats what she .....oh never mind

I like to see that there is interest . My favorite spoiler was a one of a kind created for Andy by his Father. In fact I like it so much I am now in the works designing one that is similar (but not the same as) to Mr Hills. It will be a while before I can show the design as we just got started. The initial design is almost complete we are now raising questions like adjustable hight adjustable pitch adjustable lip or just make a simple one piece design.

I saw those flames a couple of weeks ago when he overtook me on a trackday.

Next time I'm going to hang ssome burgers off his rear spoiler and get them barbecued.

If it looks like Andy's, I'll buy one from you for sure.

As to wether it should be adjustable, I don't really think it would do much for aerodynamics anyway (I may be wrong though) and most people like myself will only get it for show. So a fixed one would probably be better/cheaper/easier to make? Alternatively, adjustable pitch perhaps.

PS. Get a bloody move on mate. I want it asap!!!

 

Lol lol lol!!

An Fchatter from Australia was there a few weeks ago also. He tried taking some pics from behind like these ones, but he said the car was too fast and he was too slow!

He said seeing and hearing the car in person was amazing!

 

I like the look of the spoiler and the rear diffuser. For me though, such add-ons need to be functional (and not merely cosmetic)... are they?

All the best,
Andrew.

 

Those photos are just bad a$$!

 

I was considering getting a spoiler made based on the Gallardo SL

with the flames!!

 

Well I know the diffuser works for sure as he made cause he was BBQ his rear bumper

But the spoiler I believe is more cosmetic than functional, but there is no way really to tell unless you can get us into a wind tunnel

I think I agree with Sy that a one piece will be the best but having the options of height would be nice like a 2", 4", 6" rise from the deck lid.

 

lol, The diffuser is more a heat shield for the bodywork than an aerodynamic device?!

Well, spoilers seem to only really give a benefit at high speeds and, as the car was being used on a track, I had wondered if the driver reported the feel of increased rear grip or stability with this addition.

All the best,
Andrew.

 

Awesome.

I guess I just have a bit of a sceptical view of spoilers given the usual stigma associated with them on road-legal cars... i.e. Subaru, hot hatches, or any car owned by a 17 year old. I just figured spoilers were generally only effective in race applications - and then need to be absolutely massive to have any effect.

Sounds worth considering at some point in the future.

All the best,
Andrew.

 

What angle of attack did you set it at and what was the speed when you could feel a difference? Did you add any front downforce over standard?

 

that 348 is a monster
its beautiful
