not to be picky but F1 wind tunnel testing is only allowed with 60% scale models.

Are you sure? I thought it was 60% or smaller.

Also...That car looks slick.

only going on what i was told at MTC's wind tunnel. i guess it could be smaller but for best results 60% is the bee knees.

interesting, did the guys there explain why 60% is better than full scale?

Ah right, fair enough. I am intrigued.

The car looks pretty neat, but, as somebody else has already said, it doesn't look very well developed. The speed of the MP4-24 around February this year suddenly doesn't look as though it could be so embarrassing.
