Text Box: These pictures represent one of my winter projects, where my goal was to come up with a new Nose design which would be more aerodynamic. The original nose had a lot of vertical frontal area. The desired result would be good downforce with a higher straight line speed. The pictures depict the different stages of the project. The first node was laid up in Fiberglass, but the mold could also be used for Carbon Fiber.
