The application of this study to racing is credited with much of the sport's recent progress as teams learn more about drag, air turbulence, and down-force. The science of understanding different forces acting on a moving element in gasses such as air. Therefore, down-force on the front of the trailing vehicle(s) is decreased and it does not turn in the corners as well, resulting in an "aero push." This condition is more apparent on the exit of the turns. When following another vehicle closely, the airflow off the lead vehicle does not travel across the following one(s) in a normal manner. AĬommonly used abbreviation when referring to the all-important science of aerodynamics. Don't wonder about the meaning of these words ever again. Here are definitions of both legitimate words, slang words and phrases commonly used in sim-racing. If you're gonna sim-race, then you better know the lingo.
