[DeTomaso] Cold air inlet idea

[Matt Wells]

Well Rich I was curious too.
So I did my own little test. After an earlier discuss on the same subject.
Please excuse the tilted view as I just slapped on my gopro without
thinking.
Just tilt your head a little to the right ;-)
I don't know if I proved anything after looking at the little yarn pieces
flapping around at 120mph
but my untrained eye tells me there is fur shur air moving towards the back
of the car at the gill surface!
Anyway I had fun doing it. Let me know if the video/link doesn't work and
I'll resend another corny version already on Utoob.
Good luck on the project.
Matt
