Great question Neil and one I have been interested in for a long time. I agree with you about most of the software. Since SAE has some credibility you might want to look at DynoSim. SAE lists it on t

Dave, I bought a one year, 2-seat, license, for Fluent for my former company in 2004. It cost $37,000 and included one week of training for two people. That was a license; we could not make an outrig

Why not do it on jack stands in your clean, cool garage? With the car on the floor, measure from the centerline of the axel to the floor because of squat or footprint. That radius should be slightly

Hi Jon. Think of the lower tire radius as a lever arm. It's the lever arm (and its length) that does all the work to move the car forward. That length of the arm also affects the overall gear ratio.

Hi Dave: I agree the length of the arm affects torque but me thinks it affects distance traveled also. The two are interrelated. I was only using the top Fuel tire to illustrate a point about squat o

Yep, it is strictly VE. Fluid dynamics is complex as you know. But reversion, the timing of acoustical wave propagation, poppet valve flow characteristics, and cam overlap all influence the point of

Anything that disturbs laminar flow and causes turbulence will add drag. But the air under there is already turbulent so does either choice make any difference? My guess is the louvers would add more
