Default Gurney flaps... Rs wings?

Hi all,

Looking for any thoughts or links for flow tests, cfd analysis, around adding gurney flaps to the RS wings and lower ducktail.


I've read all that I can find here and elsewhere,

Much appreciated,

My experience in adding Gurney Flaps (0.1" - 0.5") to existing wings, is, while they are of some help in increasing downforce,
I have found the increase to be very small, worthwhile in very close racing but unlikely to be detected during HPDE's by most amateur drivers.

Rear Gurney for my DE Driving which is still new at this hobby was noticeable, under heavy braking and stabilizing the rear end, and could also be felt by carrying more MPH in faster corners.
