  1. What do you reckon the second opening alongside the exhaust slot on the Ferrari is for? I know nothing about aero, but it seems to me that perhaps it is exhausting air from the body cavity or engine surround which might help keep the faster exhaust gases from spilling sideways from the "coanda" effect slot?

    1. Hi Ted

      It's something that has been done before and as you point out it can be used to aid in attachment as much as it does the job of cooling

    1. Engine and or torque characteristics could play a huge role, tuning the size and orientation can help with the way power is produced. The aero however is perhaps more important and by tuning the exit size can help to extract better performance at a given rev range.
