Greenwood West 38th Street 82nd Now: STAR STAFF ILLUSTRATION slow cars side while devising methods to increase downforce by the tunnels. As a car moves, air is forced into the tunnels chambers that get larger toward the rear so that air rushes through at an accelerated rate, creating what physicists call the venturi effect. The result is a low-pressure area that sucks the car toward the ground. As of last year, the rear openings of such tunnels were limited to 10 inches.

A rules change this year, however, reduced that to eight inches for the CART (Championship Auto Racing Teams) circuit. See DIFFUSERS Page 15 3 RACE IN "86 ISUZU TROOPER II 4X4, AC, PS. PB, AM-FM stefeo. '86 OLDS CIERA WGN. 3rd seal, V6, low miles.

rules. It's a never-ending battle at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Except for minor setbacks, speed inevitably wins. But never has technology so humiliated attempts to control it. This year, trying to make Indy safer and more competitive, rules makers sought to lower speeds by reducing aerodynamic downforce on the vehicles.

The goal was to make cars less stable in the four corners, forcing the drivers to slow down a bit. To achieve that goal, 1990 cars were required to cut the size of under-car air channels by 20 percent, and existing cars were to be fitted with a two-inch diffuser that would do the same thing. So what happened? Emerson Fittipaldl broke all previous records in qualifying and the 33 cars in the field for Sunday's 74th Indy 500 averaged 217.437 miles an hour. That is almost one mph faster than the average of last year's field, despite the fact that five cars are slower than the slowest time of last year. "It's ridiculous," said Didier Theys, a Belgian road-racer who will start from the seventh row in a 1989 Penske-built car.

"The plan was to make everybody closer in speed and more competitive. But this year, the field is faster at the top and slower at the bottom." Joe Negri, a Buick engineer, said there are three ways to change the downforce created as the air passes a 220-mph race car: 1) with the wings mounted front and rear on the cars; 2) by the shape of the car's body, and 3) by the underside of the car. Attempts to get too much downforce from the wings or the body shape also can create drag, which slows cars on the straightaways. The compromise was to reduce drag on the out- 17th ANNUAL DAY SALE ZIONSVILLE STORE CLOSED SUNDAY ON 0 EVERY ITEM IN STOCK Miller FROM 3995 FROM 2995 FROM $22900 FROM 7900 The Perfect Gift for Dad Schoolhouse I Regulator I' Pine Cabinet hrtiir hour strike $89 on sale save 50 fTM 2'-. k'j -o.
