New wing design? Dixon and Bernstien have been running this wing since testing began at the start of the season.

Eh.

 

[Buzzz Miller]

All of my testing shots from three teams in early Feb has them running that design.
Maybe even more. But that is a long way to go back just to check.

I heard Garlits was coming out with some sort of aero spoon nose to cover up some kind of airplane looking front tire?? Something about trying to go 270? That will never work!

I also heard that he was trying to run some kind of a belt for a front tire, on some discs.....and what is this mono-strut wing that is being spoke of???

I first noticed it on Dixon's car last season.

A quick check shows Herbert running one as early as Richmond last season.

Yeah but they didn't need that design to go 330...

Joe Amato didn't need it to go 280 ethier.

I made this point on the Gary Orsmby Streamliner thread, all that Mega Buck$ those teams spent on Aero packages and it didn't make a difference!

It isn't an aeordynamic feature... Its how they open their beers at the track ... They thought it would help market busweiser...
