I think I'd make the exhaust pipes a bit longer if I had no windscreen! nutter

the no screen was a management decision!!! Everyone knows that instructions only have to be read if the thing doesn't work....

Has Carl, ever done a comparison run, with the air dam off the car, I cant imagine downforce is important and it would certainly affect Cd ???

if carl wants to tell people what he`s planning , i`m certain he`ll post it on MC , but i would be rude of me to post on here what he planning before he tells people , don`t think its any big secert , just not my place to talk about other peoples plans. if u understand. Everyone knows that instructions only have to be read if the thing doesn't work....

That why I asked the question alex, as a comparison run would give an indication of effect. Did my bit on fluid mechanics at uni. all of 15 years ago, so dont remember didly squat :) 9 valves, 4 wheel drive, 3 cylinders, 1 turbo, which got nicked |

in my intrest in twin engined cars and not wanting to start a new tread on this i do a smaal hack on this one. i was wondering... im always been said power output on both engine's needs to be equal but in fact does it? the les stronger engine gets helped by the stronger engin right? or vice versa... the stronger engine needs to take some more of the work... i do mean with 2 engines seperated each driving an axle. you can do anything if you set your mind to it...

AWD cars don't always have a 50-50 torque split between front and rear so why would you need it with 2 engines? Edited by jbelanger on 26th Aug, 2015. |

On 26th Aug, 2015 Rammie2000 said: True. There are also a few hybrid cars around now that drive one set of wheels with the main engine and the other axle with a much smaller electric motor for a boost.
the les stronger engine gets helped by the stronger engin right? Not so relevant for a drag car, but if both axles are driven with significant power and each engine has different torque curves, then it would make the car unpredictable in the corners. If the torque split is a constant ratio (or closely controlled by an ECU) then this is fine, but much trickier to do with two unconnected engines. Edited by PhilR on 26th Aug, 2015. |

a yes. like the back end would like to pull faster then the front end or vice versa. so nothing to do with a road car you can do anything if you set your mind to it...
