It’s not... But you DO need to know what you’re doing. This week, we’re sitting down with aero specialist Amir Bentatou from @RSFuture to discuss creating an effective aero package for your vehicle, how to actually test it, and much more. It’s no secret that over the last decade or so, the use of aero components has really grown thanks to disciplines like time attack and hill climbing. The reality is, these days, if you want to be competitive on track, a solid aero package is no longer optional. In the past, this usually meant consulting with experts, having your car scanned, and a custom aero package designed and built for your car — and that costs a lot of time and money. Things are different these days, though, and Amir dives straight into discussing how the average racer can build out a successful aero package to pick up a whole lot of speed using the 80/20 rule — that is, 80% of the performance for 20% of the money and effort. We also discuss testing at the grassroots level through the use of wool tufting and flow-vis — these can be easily implemented, but you still need to understand what you’re looking at when the car comes back into the pits. This conversation goes deep into the aero world, but also touches on Amir’s self-taught journey to get where he and RS Future are today, as well as his insight into the world of time attack and GT3 racing, which is something he’s been heavily involved in for a good few seasons now.
