Racing Aerodynamics
Design - Compete - Win
I contributed to 39 wins and 2 Championships by decreasing drag, increasing downforce, and optimizing engine cooling through use of computer simulations, wind tunnel tests, and ongoing consultations with race team engineers and mechanics.
I collaborated with a design team to transform the Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 production car into a race vehicle. Our design took the Pole and won the 2018 Daytona 500!
MY DESIGN PROCESS
Start with a concept geometry.
Which areas are the most sensitive to changes?
How can we increase performance in these areas?
CORVETTE C7.R
I worked with a team to take the production C7.R to the race track.
When designing aerodynamic modifications, the smallest change can result in large gains. Diveplanes are a great example of a way to subtly enhance performance. I implemented the design on a Corvette C6.R with proven results.
