The part I can't figure out is why the use, specifically, by name, of "NACA ducts" for those front brakes?
1. I thought that NACA ducts were to be surface mounted, with the pointy end facing upstream, and the air moving over the face of the thing? Not mounted as a "hole in the wall", with the air blowing into the face, as shown here? Unless the bumper gets a helluva side wind?
2. I thought that NACA ducts were good for a smaller quantity of high velocity air, running at the same speed as the intake air (think "car wash jet" as opposed to, say, a river)? And brakes, radiators, engine intakes, etc all needed slower, calmer air in larger quantities?
I realize that 2, $115 ea carbon fiber NACA ducts look really cool, but even the NASCAR Cup guys are running (basically) nice holes in the bumper...
