JK knows more about this than I do. You might call him at 850 575 9372. As for aerodynamics... in my head anyway, a TR3 is as slippery and as beautiful as a new Ferrari. Tim Suddard/GRM

While my avocation is vintage racing a TR3, my vocation is that of a mason contractor. In my opinion, the TRIUMPH TR3 has all of the areo-dynamics of a brick. Bill Dentinger

Hmmm. At the end of the back straight at PIR my cheater TR3 read 123 mph via radar gun. I think it's about the same at the end of the much longer straight at SIR since I lift and hold at 6500 RPM. I'

Bob and FOT, The negative pressure created by a front spoiler can also greatly improve the airflow through the radiator. A very small spoiler of about 2" depth extending the width of the radiator ope

The last spoilers I did for the TR-6 and the GT-6 were tested several times with various fiberglass layups so that the thickness allowed the spoiler to bend down as the speed increased. This really c

Some reduction of drag but at the higher s[peeds you need more covering of the area but the MAIN thing was to pass tech. down times to the out improve depth

So when you say "bend down".... in essence... it has more to do with making it go lower, than to change the shape, right? Since a tech-pass was your main issue, it was more about having it not appear
