Default Lets get a explanation of the ZR1 front end aero from Tadge

The link above to a SAE article references Tadge Juechter on the changes of the ZR1 front end aero and air management of the engine compartment.
Finally, we can get a comprehensive explanation by Tadge on the importance of the front end air management and how they addressed the extraction of heat out of the engine compartment to keep the engine cool. The biggest gripe on the ZO6 was the overheating of the LT4 during hot track days. If you really want more info on all of the aero changes to the ZR1, go and vote on the Ask Tadge poll this week on this very question.Hopefully we will probably get a expanded explanation of the changes by Tadge if we put it in front of him. GO VOTE !!
