[DeTomaso] Possible Hood Vents

[Göran Malmberg]

Thanks Ken!
Looks pretty Okay to me. Would have been interesting to see the car in
”pearson”.
Suspension design and so on. A lot horsepower, which makes it fast. But
apearently
it is missing grip since skidpad, high speed rear grip and braking
numbers are not 
should we say “extreamly” good. I am not saying it is bad then. One
could wonder
a few seconds about acceleration performance 0-60 within 2,7 sek then
with the “bad grip” 
in mind. It is fascinating if the car accelerates better than it brakes,
using only 2 wheels.

GT 40 was a long time ago, Ultimate Aero is a modern car!
But maybe it spun its tires during initial tests....
However, can find any spec of interest on the car other 
than hp number and some 10 speakers.

     I heard that during the early testing of the original GT40,  the
rear 
tires would start spinning at 170 mph due to rear end lift.  The spoiler

added to the rear of the car apparently solved the problem.
