238 Standing Mile Record for C7 Corvette. Equipped with Difflow!

A decade ago, the fastest supercars around would need miles of straight pavement to hit 200 mph. But thanks to ever-improving technology and engineering, even a Chevy can smash the 200-mph mark in less than a mile.

The world record C7 Corvette in the video is equipped with a High Performance Rear Diffuser from Difflow.

Thats super impressive at altitude. Wonder what it would do down here at sea level?

Curious, did this car ever run before adding your diffuser to see what kind of gains it may have offered?

Thanks

The only benefit that diffuser will have is the plate that runs from the rear subframe to the rear bumper. The rest of it is added weight. It is far too far from the ground and does not extend out the back of the car enough for it to be truly effective.

He mentioned the diffuser kept the car stable and firmly planted and looks great. I know the question will arise... "Do you have CFD or Wind Tunnel Testing?" At this time, no. The cost for that (roughly $8k-$10k) is just too expensive. We rely on customer testimonials and feedback for all of our diffusers. The diffuser functionality comes into play when the body of the diffuser extends as far forward as possible. Ours does that, and the diffuser body keeps the air from being obstructed by objects underneath the rear of the car. The diffuser fins will channel the air from front to back properly. Realistically, you want a diffuser to sit around 11-14 degrees, but that wouldn't look attractive, so we had to compromise and create something with style, and not just function alone since the C7 rear end is built steep and without thought for a diffuser. We can customize.
