I managed to find 5 mph from switching my aluminum fender vents to carbon.
I knew they would be an improvement but to find 5mph at a short 1.7mi track like TSMP was surprising. I can't wait to test at a track like WGI to see what kind of gains I can find there!!
I'm still waiting on the CFD from the full 3d scan to come in but I'm guessing it's from better wing interactions.
My previous top mph was always right at 139 now 144 was my best top speed.

Impressive improvement from a vent swap! Car obviously improved its drag coefficient. I am assuming similar track temperature and weather conditions? I like your vent setup.

yes conditions were nearly identical.
I was looking for any reason the difference was so much. Only real difference other than the vents was my tires had about 6 more heat cycles on them lol
