Do anybody know about the holes in the bumper thing

[cb7_orlando]

i seen alot of hondas with the holes in the bumper and the only thing i can think that its for is aerodynamics is there any write ups so i can do this to my cb and have it look desent

Here's my old accord. I just used a drill lol.

[honda_kid]

lets the air pass thru the bumper instead of the bumper acting like a parachute

[scudweiser]

from what i heard it only has a measurable affect when your car traps over like 120mph in the 1320.

most aerodynamics only work with higher speeds like that.

holes in the bumper/ rear diffusers is so 2007, now drag cars are running with the whole center section cut out


j/k, but seriously not on an accord unless its a drag car.

not true, they just arent as noticable as they are at higher speed. even pinewood derby cars are benifited by a clean aerodynamic design, however the benifit is VERY small. the drag function is a square of the speed.

for a stock daily driver holes in the bumper get a thumbs down IMO but to each his own

pinewood derby? what are we 12?

Lmao I was thinking the same thing. I understand what he means though. He was just using that as a example...I hope lol.

[wed3k]

the reason why everyone designed the derby car like that is because everyone else from later years designed it like that.

[noobcake]

lol
i made a co2 powered wooden car in high school?
it had awful aerodynamics.
and i won.

ya, i was just speaking in terms of scale. they go very slow, but aerodynamics still make a difference, even if it isnt much of one.

[dano28]

A very aerodynamic car lacks directional stability at high speed. A "spoiler's" job is to spoil aerodynamics in order to enhance directional stability.

Think of a drogue chute.

[wed3k]

you can probably put the time into reducing rotational and any frictional drag. also improve the compound of the tire.
