Jellybean Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 Was looking at Le Mans film last nite , The Porsche that Steve is driving , I taught it had a spare wheel behind the rear window but the what the hell is it doing with a space saver lol then I taught maybe it is weight for balance or penality, until I seen it spinning ; what the hell is it , cool the engine or for downforce to suck the car to the road ?

T2 MSW Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 (edited) Im sure it was for cooling as the engine is air cooled not water, theres are youtube video on it somewhere ill see if I can find it. Cant be aero related as there is nowhere for the air to go of any use under the fan. Edited December 1, 2015 by T2 MSW (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
