Abstract: In this research paper, the possible aerodynamic positives through technoligies adapted from Formula 1 can benefit cars. Through wind tunnel and Computational Fluid Dynamic test the model cars exhibited the negatives and positives shown through the adaptation of a specific Formula 1 technology, a front wing. Through these tests possible future implications on the car industry were discovered. Furthermore, the paper discusses the advantages from both a physics standpoint and a business one. Physics aside, the economic and business oriented discussion was prompted by the results. Possible future implications as a result of this research and research alike is vast and this paper makes it clear that it is one which undoubtedly requires more research.
