In case anybody is wondering, they're called "NACA ducts" because in 1945, the National Advisory Committee for Aviation (NACA) developed the shape in 1945 as a very efficient way to duct air from the side of a vehicle (airplanes back then, but you see them on supercars today). NACA was dissolved in 1958 and replaced by a new agency-NASA.

Look at WRC cars been doing it for decades and Touring cars, the spining disk throws the air out from the centre and the wheel itself get hot too hot to actually touch 🤙do you mean open wheel like the type of vehicle or how the new f1 car have only tiny holes in the wheels itself ?

[@Ender_Challenge]

And these are new features too!

[@GARBO96]

[@sergeantmasson3669]

Dale Earnhardt Sr was the first NASCAR driver to use airflow as an advantage. He discovered how while doing a practice test at Daytona Speedway, with his friend Neil Bonnett, on a foggy Saturday morning. They tried several different positions to see how the fog moved around at different speeds, etc. It took other NASCAR drivers a long time to figure out what Dale Sr was doing. Some said that he could "see the air." He even modified his helmet so he could feel the airflow on his face during racing situations. Dale Sr could do things while driving a race car that other drivers often thought were impossible to do. Thus, he became the greatest race car driver in NASCAR's history.

JACOB! Thank you for another one of your absolutely INCREDIBLE videos. I binged your entire catalogue on KZbin here and I just absolutely love the quality of these CGI breakdowns. Edit: As for the aerodynamics of NASCAR, the dirty air and simplistic look of the car makes it feel like a brick under its top speeds. It's very important to understand that the sort of control this amount of downforce gives you is very significantly different than that of say full front and rear spoilers, or formula one levels of aero control. The minor slats and diffusers and wings are basically a minimum requirement for the cars.

[@SJR_Media_Group]

This video, 3D graphics and explanations are very accurate to the real world. I wish we had this channel back in our day when we were racing. I could have learned a lot, saved a lot, maybe won more often. We learn by doing and by trial and error. When you are a small team with few sponsors, mistakes are personally costly. I was involved in NASCAR for several years. We were not in the Cup Series, which is the top of the food chain. Very expensive class to race in. We had several cars and also, several trucks. They were competitive in local and regional racing events. I can still remember when Dale Earnhardt died in 2001. Several of the drivers wanted to quit racing. One of our biggest challenge was keeping current with ever changing rules. Even between tracks, rules could be different. When rules change, you have to change the cars. We always built new cars over the winter, based on rules that were published at end of racing season year before. Man, those were exciting times.

Great content - and spot on accurate. I feel like this channel is the best kept secret. This content deserves so much more viewers. Although I'm disappointed you mentioned the Earnhardt and Petty bar but failed to mention the newer (and very important) Newman bar.

[@oneal187]

As the main researcher on the project, I had some questions about this throughout the process. The earnhardt and petty bars are identical in the next gen cars when compared to the 6th gen. The newman bar, from what I understand, was a second bar that was added across the entire windshield area below the original halo bar. The next gen no longer has that same bar, but does have a single bar only on the driver's side that does the same thing? Since the bar changed, and is now only extended across half of the windshield, I didn't want to assume that it was still considered the same bar name, as I was unable to clarify with 100% surety that it was still considered the newman bar. If it is still considered the newman bar, let us know and we will be sure to add it to a comment of "corrections/additions" that we add to a pinned comment. Thanks!

[@Duncanudc]

@@oneal187 Thanks for the detailed response. I'm embarrassed to admit I didn't realize the "Newman Bar" only extends to the driver's side in the Next Gen car. Newman, with his engineering background, was responsible for important safety updates the last gen NASCAR chassis. He had a propensity for other cars landing on his and was very outspoken on increasing driver safety in those events. His scary wreck at Daytona in 2020 was the catalyst that introduced even more robust changes to the roll cage and crash structure of the car. But I'm getting off topic. Since the bar is different in the Next Gen car, I agree with your assessment, even though it serves the same purpose, it's different so it can't be assumed to be the same. I just didn't want Newman's contributions to safety to be overlooked. Thanks! Keep the vids coming, they're top-notch. You've done F1, you've done NASCAR, I think an IndyCar would be a great video and round out the collection.

What a great comment thread! I had the same thought about the "missing" Newman bar in the graphic, but I didn't realize they'd shortened it. However, seeing the design now, I think the name may still be appropriate. That extra bar seems to specifically reinforce the driver's front corner of the cage against intrusion. I wonder if Newman's 2020 crash had any influence in it's placement? Same name, new reason?

This is satisfying to watch. BTW tapered spacers are used at all races. The engine they use can still produce up to 900hp.

Very good info, pretty detailed. NASCAR mandated the HANS device once Dale Earnhardt got killed. They had it back then but most drivers didn't like to use it and Dale was one of 'em. Had he been using it, his odds of surviving that crash would have dramatically increased. I think after that crash, it probably scared most drivers into using it even if it wasn't mandated. Dale wasn't the first driver to end up with passing on from a basal skull fracture which it what the HANS device prevents. Along with the device, these cars are super engineered for performance and safety... along with the mandated soft walls on every track.
