Beautiful splitter/undertray. Are these going to be available?
Also, when you measure ride hieght at 9cm, where is this measurement taken, and do you run any rake?

Cheers and great work.
Thx!

I will publish some information about the suspension later this week (if all goes well). The splitter/undertray are adapted to the widebody setup as we speak, promised to be ready end of next week. They will be commercially available, as is everything that I have developed for my car.

I measured the ride hide at the jack pickup points IIRC. There will certainly be lower points.

I have a diffuser laying around somewhere, coming of a Viper, that fits. For it to be really effective, I would have to change to a side exhaust, a project that has to wait for my next engine, and fuel cell to replace the tank. The Kokeln one would be ideal, but I refuse to pay $4500 for something that used to cost one third of this amount.

I have put up an onboard video of one of last years Spa/Francorchamps laps on Youtube. As you can see, even at lap times of 2:55 a 951 will stand its ground between all the other cars.

Nice Video Hans, but where's the sound? Gotta have that next time.
