Originally posted by Sprinkles View PostYou might be able to do it with no ducting and a clever undertray design, create enough pressure differential to pull the air through. Some CFD modelling should validate or disprove this.
Also, the underbody flow isn't going to be doing much till it's up to ~100+ km/h.
Another option might be some Group 5 style box arches with the radiators in front of the rear wheels."Where can we get hold of a Vincent Black Shadow?" "Whats that?" "A fantastic bike," I said. "The new model is something like two thousand cubic inches, developing two hundred brake-horsepower at four thousand revolutions per minute on a magnesium frame with two styrofoam seats and a total curb weight of exactly two hundred pounds."

Lost for words on how mad this project is. In a good way. Makes the R35 Juke look sane.

Someone once asked me if they could use my mower. I said "sure, so long as it doesn't leave my yard"

Originally posted by Gammaboy View PostI suspect tray open with radiator in tailgate *might* get you enough airflow. Using a bottom feeder isn't fantastic because it's pulling a) all the hot air that's coming from under the car, and b) the air that's at road level which is ~10* or more hotter than ambient - both of which will put a world of hurt on the cooling system in hot weather. Cooling capacity is heavily dependent on the temperature delta between the coolant and the air temp the radiator sees, that's why a radiator that's good for ~190hp on a 4-stroke at ~95* coolant temp is only good for about 85hp at 55* with a 2 stroke...
Also, the underbody flow isn't going to be doing much till it's up to ~100+ km/h.
