6 days ago - DeltaWing Technologies Inc. May 3, 2011 - The modern formula one (F1) race car has a lot in common with an advanced jet fighter. For those of us interested in the aerodynamics of racing cars, this book provides good explanations of nearly all top-level aerodynamic theories. Since it's publication, Race Car Aerodynamics has been used by race car designers and as course material in universities around the world. The seminal book on the theory and practice of high-speed vehicle aerodynamics Race Car Aerodynamics, is now available in a revised second edition. Sep 28, 2012 - 'Our aim is not necessarily to be the fastest in absolute top speed but to be the quickest and most rewarding series production road car on a circuit', says McLaren Automotive Managing Director Antony Sheriff. Joseph Katz's book was published by Bentley Publishers in 1995. Jun 5, 2013 - Racecar Aerodynamics: Designing for Speed by Joseph Katz Book Review. 3 hours ago - The cars tend to run a low downforce set-up in Montreal, to maximize a top speed of over 300kph on the straights. It is all about innovative technology. Yet it is a striking and handsome car. Aerodynamics is a After the McLaren 12C GT3 race confirmed for 2014 Pirelli Word Challenge. Released a rendering of an application of its DeltaWing aerodynamic and lightweight design architecture—currently competing in IMSA sports car road races in the form of the DeltaWing race car—as a street-legal, The current performance targets are 0-60 mph in about six seconds, 130 mph top test-track speed, and up to 70 mpg when using a small displacement, four-cylinder engine producing between 85 and 110 horsepower. Feb 1, 2006 - Revised edition of Race Car Aerodynamics out now. It celebrates aerodynamics, great packaging and light weight. The P1 reflects McLaren's core values. A majority of these common features come from the aerodynamic considerations that go into its design. Mar 20, 2013 - Other examples include the aerodynamic design that was the hallmark of the Formula One race cars of the 1960s, and the technical innovation and advancements that were introduced with contemporary models such as the 911 Carrera. Dec 17, 2013 - However, aerodynamic design and wind break rate greatly affect the speed and acceleration of a sports car. Jan 1, 2011 - "Race Car Aerodynamics" is the first book to summarize the secrets of the rapidly developing field of high-speed vehicle design. 5 days ago - “Many of the aerodynamic, lightweight and handling benefits of the race car can translate to the street,” said Don Panoz, chairman of DeltaWing Technologies Inc.
