I dont want to produce this my self (people dont listen well)!!!!
I want a car company to "buy" the design. They'll worry about costs and all other things. I'll collect royalties and buy a few for my self. If I am to build the design myself, It'll cost in the millions of dollars to do it right (according to further research). I could probably get that money eventually, but that is not my goal!!! Plus you really have to have someone intelligent to head an operation like this. I have plenty of inteligence, but not enough research. THIS is research right now. I'm not worried about personal costs of building the car right now since I'm not planning on building it. I'm not overestimatign market potential. I knwo it'll take a while for someone to buy my design, but I'm a patient person. New supercars dont come out often. This si mroe a showcase item, to attract attention to my other future designs.

Oh, one more thing...probably no more than 50 would be released each year.
Here are some specs I got from Brembo about their Grand Turismo Kit. Quote:

Double wishbones take up a lot of room, but not THAT much room. The gains in cornering offset the decrease in usable space. "Plus whether the design needs to use equal length or unequal arms in order to keep the wheel vertical." What does this mean?

Negative pressure nitrogen? First off, there's NO such thing as negative pressure. Theoretically, you can have almost zero pressure, but you can't have negative pressure EVER. Now, if you want non-pressure-balanced gas chambers (is that what you are thinking of?) to actuate the valves, how are you going to pick when the valves are to move and when they are to close?

BTW, naming astrology as something that "uses" ... doesn't help your case at all.

Ales, I seem to have rambled there, i lost track of what i was trying to say I meant that a car with underbody effects & front splitter/rear diffuser would have more drag then a car without those. The front spltter design traps air above the splitters panel or whatever it's called so theres your drag, an underody & diffuser probably wouldn't cause any drag, drag slows air down and both of those are trying to speed it up. |

not the engine the gas cam actuation my terminology may have been inccorect but prsurised nitrogen holds the valves closed while removing that presure makes them open (hence negative) maybe reverse woulda been better suited and you could regulate it using solenoids to open an close smaller inlet/outlet in the gas chambers

I suggest you use the term "low pressure"
