Hi Mark,

I don't know for sure what is going on in the picture... but I'm assuming the changes in color represent changes in air speed. It looks like the air is flowing through the valance, around the rotors, and out through the wheels. What a great tool for designing the valance and ducting for cooling the brakes. No guess work here.

I would be interested if you had any more details about this picture... cool stuff.

Matt opened up the rail and capped off internally and added a curved piece to turn the air. 18 X 11 wheel no problems lock to lock.

With the Anvil lower front valance it is wide open for brake ducts. We squared off the end of the frame rail and removed all the bumper bracket holes. Then added front duct that pull of the opening in the lower valance.

Now that you guys figured that I can post the rest of the pictures when I find them.

With Carbon Ceramic Brakes you need a lot of air flow to cool the brakes. Especially when you are making 875 HP. They don't have much thermal mass so much the cooling needs to be by air flow.

I cry foul! Where's my Royalty checks? The Beach Cruiser has be set up like this for a while! Maybe it is I that should be careful of the pictures I post

Lmao thanks mark...smart ass...guess I could have looked out my own windows to see that....but it does look like you've got more snow then us.
On a serious note when you built malitude you used a Canadian guy mmmmm his name is escaping me right now but he was too far from London ontario. I've got his name written down somewhere and address, my question is were you happy with the results...would you send anyone to see him for work. Reason I ask is for what I'm planning on paint requires someone to have a gentle touch and attention to detail. I can pm you the details if you need to know what I'm planning. Was kinda thinking about possibly using him
Thanks Ryan Austin
