Didn't race that nose solution in the first race, after running some back to back tests I found a Ferrari style nose worked better so went with that for race one. Other changes for the first race included a McLaren style front wing, rear wing endplates and rear wing support.

Race two submission came right in the middle of me and my partner redecorating our lounge so my PC wasnt easily accessible. I have made a few tweaks though. Before starting the decorating I had managed to produce a neater sidepod and engine cover package, this has made it on to the car for this race, the rear wing stays but the front wing reverts back to launch spec minus the extra winglets.

I should test Ferrari shape too, but at the moment I'm still running with a nose very similar to your first one.
