thanks! I'm still working on the idea. for now, the main idea is to have the cover pivot with the wheel. this idea is inspired by granturismo's x2014 --> wtf1.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/…

hi! really awesome work
id like to ask a question, i saw that there are vents to let the air pass on the front tires, wouldnt the cover if it pivots to the inside, have an effect on the airflow and then the aerodynamics? on the plus side i kinda feel maybe that it would also help in the steering

this was really just an experiment, however like you said, one can reason that it would help the car turn in faster if the cover directs the airflow in the turning direction.
but like i said, this was more for fun and doesn't necessarily have much research to backup the engineering benifits
