Anything in the air stream such as a wing or canard creates a lot of drag. Unlike the top fuel dragsters, lakesters run a small and lower mounted wing. Ground effects are another story and work grea

Glen; I was replying to the strain gage proposal which also requires that the driver react to some warning device. If you can get enough of a warning at .250 lift by visual means, I believe your reac

I think brake bias was not set right for burn out, I think they can do the adjustment in the car. dale ssuunnyy and 80 in pahrump warning quicker idea. car dreaded answer steer.

Maybe end plates on the small lakester wings ( as on the CART/IRL wings ) would help prevent loss of suction when they "get a little sideways" are there any aircraft type sensors that could be used t

Neil, et al, Thanks for the discussion, as usual you have given me good ideas to pursue. I think that measurement of the weight on the front of the car rather than physical lift movement is what I'd

I'm actually with Glen on this one-- I don't think the driver can watch a ride-height readout and react fast enough to be of much value. Where it could be useful is to record that data on a run and

One problem with the sensors that tell the driver he has a problem is that most of us don't respond quickly enough to indicators we already have...car getting loose, sideways, etc. It is hard to lift

" It is hard to lift when you have a good run going. For anything in this area to have a chance of improving our safety will likely need to be activated without driver intervention. Just my opinion!"

Arne (007); I can't think of a case where lift would develop suddenly; it goes as the square of the speed, so a warning that too much lift was developing could be seen in the lower-pass runs by looki
