The low and late sidepod undercut pressurises the volume before the hole allowing for energised air to penetrate the hole.

The low and late sidepod undercut pressurises the volume before the hole allowing for energised air to penetrate the hole.
This is the rule and reference that allows for the hole. There is a point of accelerating air off the rear wheel that is pushed around the tyre edge. It will re energise the diffuser that is relatively flat, with a low pressure recovery gradient.

If you were ever wondering how import logic is for Australian culture, this video presents it in clear and uncertain terms.
We couldn’t possibly change the date. It’s just not something we do.

The woolly rhino we've all been wondering about
A woolly rhino genome has been recovered from meat preserved in a frozen wolf pup’s stomach. The 14,400-year-old DNA is helping researchers understand why woolly rhinos went extinct.
Woolly rhino genome recovered from meat in frozen wolf pup’s stomach
A piece of woolly rhinoceros flesh hidden inside a wolf that died 14,400 years ago has yielded genetic information that improves our understanding of why one of the most iconic megafauna species of the last glacial period went extinct

finally finishing this project off. This is the UI to extract the data from the sensor kit. Using an SDcard means a large amount of data can be used for analyzing the pressure taps or any other sensors a user wants.

the 641 is famous for the coke bottle rear. The priority for this seems to efficiency, the downforce levels appear unremarkable and drag is low, comparatively.

A plausible upscaled image. Confirms my observation that the sidepod has little undercut. There is looks like a focus on early high pressure region inside the barge boards which would structure the air through pressure gradients.

I've had this model for almost two year, maybe more. There are a couple of surprising details. One feature is the front wing endplate extensions. This represents an early generation and seems to be a bit of a problem, but it ducts the front tyre wake far out to the side.

If anyone else is needing a little mental health time-out, can I recommend learning about sloths?
Sloths are divided into two groups (genera)
Choloepus (two-toed sloths)
Bradypus (three-toed sloths)
This is a 'Bradypus variegatus,' the brown-throated sloth. See the three toes?
