The Aero Mistakes EVERY DIY Track Car Makes (And How to Fix Them)!

Is that big rear wing actually helping—or just adding drag? Ant meets Cal from Race Car Wings at Blyton Park to separate myth from physics and show what real aero does on track. We tour Cal’s competition-spec Nissan 350Z as we dig into how wings, spoilers, splitters, undertrays and diffusers work together—and how easy it is to get them wrong! Check out future The Radiator Arms Track events here: https://www.tickettailor.com/events/j... In this video, we explore: • Wing vs spoiler: the real difference and why it matters • Angle of attack, gurney flaps, and when downforce turns into drag • Height, mounting and legality (MUK regs, end-plate radii, rear overhang) • Building a balanced package: splitter → undertray → diffuser → rear wing • Common mistakes (backwards profiles, excessive angle, giant mounts / tiny wings) 🕗 The Radiator Arms podcast releases every Monday at 7 AM on this channel:    • The Radiator Arms – Podcast   (see video description of any of the YouTube episodes for links for Spotify, Apple Podcasts and more).
