Love the Chapparal fan car ;D Here's a Brabham fan car from F1  Gordon Murray designed this fantastic bit of kit to get around the 'no movable wings' regulations. Brabaham couldn't use the aerofoils in sidepods that Lotus and everyone else had because their Alfa Romeo flat 12 engine was too wide. Using the fan meant they had to seal the underside of the car to create enough vacuum and make a special fan to withstand the rotation speed. Brabham claimed it's primary function was as a cooling device so it got through scruitineering, however in practice laps it was clearly much faster than any other car on the track. When it came into the pits and the mechanics blipped the throttle you could see the car squatting down as it was sucked onto the tarmac ;D It won its first race but was withdrawn immediately afterwards so never raced again. |
