So a good fantasy thread would be... if you were doing the GTR - how would you do it?
Well if we’re stuck with using the S5 Aero chassis, then it’s a bit floppy forward of the bulkhead
A sheer plate/undertray under the engine bay (Chris L did I have a clue what he was doing with the S1) and a tubular cruciform over the engine would help...
And a roll cage tying the front suspension inputs to the rear suspension would help tremendously and stop the whole feeling like two halves...
It doesn’t need more power
Some design detail taking weight out could save circa 50 kilos for negligible production cost
The wing vents in the sketches are leaning in the right direction, but there’s none in the rear arches to prevent drag there....
I’d want a better wiper motor than a 1950’s Land Rover so at least I could see where I was heading away from backwards in the wet....
More feel through the steering
And bin the standard exhaust manifolds and system- they’re completely strangling the engine....
