DP01 testing?

[Wheel-Nut]

I found this interesting. They integrated the radio antenna to flow with the right mirror so as to not disturb any airflow up front. Kool idea. Havn't noticed it before on other cars. Of course, you don't see many close ups like that either.

still a cool idea. they should put the peedo tub on the other mirror.


How much air could that little antenna disturb? Cool idea nontheless. :thumbup:

I they should put the peedo tub on the other mirror.


Just as an FYI thats "pitot tube".

well while we're getting all technical here let's call it by it's proper name, shall we? pitot-static tube :gomer:

Why, in this age of communication technology, do any antenas have to even be visible? I never could understand why it was necessary to place them directly in the driver's field of view. What piece of information is so dependent on that kind of placement?

From everything I can see so far CCWS has accomplished their design goals. The real test will be when it comes to following closely/passing, but I suspect the major improvments looked for will be realized there as well.

This car is one of the cornerstones to a healthy future, so it's very nice to see it on the track. It looks and sounds like a champcar should. :thumbup:

I wasn't being technical. I was being anal retentive about spelling :laugh:

The true test will come when PT puts the nose into SB's sidepod!!!


Bring on the Chrome Horn!!


Can't wait!!! :thumbup: :thumbup:

Why, in this age of communication technology, do any antenas have to even be visible? Invisible antennas are not a perfect science yet. A few bugs to be worked out, like, they keep losing them. :p


I never could understand why it was necessary to place them directly in the driver's field of view. Doesn't bother them much.

Check yer PM's.
