Because of a change in championship regulations we have been able to develop a new front splitter and diffuser. The device is designed to control the airflow to the under body section. The splitter harvests pressure ahead of the car to create downforce. Further back air is accelerated to create downforce towards the middle of the car. The new front section controls the air in stages to manage its flow. It is also designed to create\u00a0vortices along the underbody to seal the\u00a0floor section and improve downforce. It&#8217;s not a perfect design as we have to work within the regulations but it vastly improves lap times. Also fitted are a type of dive plane in front of the rear wheel. Unlike regular dive planes these are mostly to deflect air from the exposed portion of the the tyre.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/aasilencers.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/DSCF4268.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-703\" title=\"ford capri front air dam and splitter\" src=\"http:\/\/aasilencers.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/DSCF4268-300x224.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"224\" srcset=\"http:\/\/aasilencers.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/DSCF4268-300x224.jpg 300w, http:\/\/aasilencers.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/DSCF4268-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/aasilencers.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/DSCF42651.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-705\" title=\"Ford Capri dive plane\" src=\"http:\/\/aasilencers.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/DSCF42651-300x224.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"224\" srcset=\"http:\/\/aasilencers.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/DSCF42651-300x224.jpg 300w, http:\/\/aasilencers.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/DSCF42651-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/aasilencers.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/DSCF4266.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-706\" title=\"DSCF4266\" src=\"http:\/\/aasilencers.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/DSCF4266-300x224.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"224\" srcset=\"http:\/\/aasilencers.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/DSCF4266-300x224.jpg 300w, http:\/\/aasilencers.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/DSCF4266-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The AA Silencers Ford Capri is always getting little developments here and there.
