Actually, turns out that I was a dum-dum. Not only was the rear right tire not torqued to spec, I was testing the tire pressure at an Advance Auto near home, and somehow the front right tire was at 12psi. Suspecting a leak, but after pumping to spec, it seems to be riding quite a bit better now. Rookie mistake, I just don't know how it took me so long to notice. Very weird.

Im not a Boeing engineer, and this is not an F1 car, but to me the holes are minimal and unless he is trying for a speed record possibly wont notice any Aero effect. But should help with the Heat issue ... in 5 months when summer comes around again in his area. But you give a valid point why this was not done when they made it... |

Ahhhh…...yes, "speed holes" or ventiPorts.
I remember those from back in the day. Yep, what went around comes around (or something like that) - Cooled down the engine, added 10 HP and 20 MPH to the top speed - humfrz |

Back in the mid sixties my friends father who was a pilot had a Buick with the holes in the fenders, the car would sit for month while he was away, I thought they were neat till I saw close up they where Fake and closed off...
Back to that Under panel idea, I knew I saw this before ... https://www.rallysportdirect.com/par...num-underpanel So 15 minutes of your time saves you 300$ not bad! |
