Thanks, I am planning to have a nose upgrade in China, but more details later...

Really nice! Hopefully I can get my debut effort up the grid a bit for a battle!

One side ot the wing is missing a cascade.

Sorry, not meant to be the second cascade. Too draggy...

Latest Brawn GP style nose. I am concerned about the lack of airflow towards the splitter, however please give feedback. If at all, this will be China-Spec...

[CottrellGP]

Is this car legal? you dont even have the right suspension :S

[MIKEY_!]

The nose is legal i think but not a good move. There is already an unbalance of DF, too much at the rear, not enough at the front. This new nose exacerbates that problem. Suspension looks wrong, that kink in the upper arm will be a weak point.

[Monster_Energy_F1]

Mikey, How can you tell that there is an unbalance of DF?

When are we going to see the photos??

[Monster_Energy_F1]

Well, as soon as I find my Photobucket password and username.

And why isn't anybody answering my question?

[Monster_Energy_F1]

Right so...

Nose may look similar but it is in fact different:


The front wing has also been shown but now comes with a new Endplate. It is still in progress, and as I am 12 I don't have a great knowledge on Aerodynamics, but I am told that the middle bit is killing the Endplates airflow:


There is also a new Rear Wing Endplate but the difference is hardly noticable. The diffuser is very, very simple and it's an area which I would like to invest the rest of my time in, at least a couple of months. I did promise a new Beam Wing, but I can only do that back in England as i'm on holiday at the moment.


Finally there is a rendered side view which is not too good, but it's the best I can show for now, and a general front view showing the revised Wing Mirrors.




Enjoy....
