[DeTomaso] Has anyone researched hood vent designs?

Mon Aug 1 13:28:49 EDT 2016

Probably more correct to say I intend the car to be able to run well over 150.  Not sure if I want to drive that fast on a country road.  I would be a lot more comfortable having fun at lower speeds in an ORR, and trying the flying mile type events to see how fast the car can actually go.  
The older we get, the longer it takes to heal.

My gut feeing is the opening needs to be moved back to reduce air pressure over the opening.  And that probably depends on speed.

  I really like the idea of boxing the trunk in your design.

  It means moving the support ribs for the hood.

  Can you enlarge the opening by starting closer to the radiator?

  I think photos of that car were posted a year ago?  I want the car to
  look like a Pantera, not a GT40.

  You should talk with Tony Ortiz in Arizona. He modified his Pantera to
  install front and rear GT40 clips.
