se7en aero - passenger compartment fill and rear tub floor.

Hi all
I have already searched and read this topic but would like fresh opinions.

Considering 80mph+ is only achieved for about 10secs a lap would getting a passenger fill in toneau make a difference?

Also i have a large gap from the floor pan st the back of the seating to the rear tub. i recon alot of air baffles into the rear tub area. Would blocking this make a diffrrence?

Two thoughts i have is that the aero is soo bad on se7en that blocking these two big holes will make a difference. also resistance is still present at 30mph. your hand still hets shoved back at this speed when out the window.

I dont want down force i just want quick cheap mods to improve my 30mph to 100mph times.

Thoughts?





Track days ARE the best thing since sliced bread, until I get a supercharger that is!

Fitting a full floor, inc under engine and rear deck will make a difference.

Dunno, but I've stuck a floor over the rear tub hole on mine because it certainly looked like it would produce a lot of drag. Pretty easy to do with a sheet of ally. I don't see that it can hurt really.

My only worry is differential temperatures.
