Varkwso Posted September 1, 2010 Share Posted September 1, 2010 Starting to see adaptive wings in cars on track. Basically through data input the wing moves to automatically increase downforce or reduce drag as needed. It is definitely from the "mission adaptive wing" technology. Did not see anything in the TT rules about it, specifically. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Shawn M. Posted September 1, 2010 Members Share Posted September 1, 2010 So TTS/TTU/TTR and SU/ST1/ST2 it is legal? And lets not forget STR1 STR2 while were at it. Power to weight classes do not bide by any aero rules. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TurboShortBus Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 Here is some "active aero" from last weekend, starting around 0:22 (watch the front wing as he pulls around Button): http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xem3t3_f1-spa-2010-crash-button-vettel_sport#from=embed Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vettedoctor Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 When did the "no movable aero" clause get chopped from the ST/TT SUR rules? I know it was there a year or two ago. So if movable aero is legal what about sucker fans? Anyone have Proctor & Gambles number? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
