Either way, it speaks to the art of the aerodynamicist that seemingly tiny anomalies are identified and addressed and a good result is the outcome.
Next cheat - wraps that are manufactured with thinner and thicker areas to either hinge or stiffen the bodywork.

the tape changes the shape, and the wrap isnt strong enough to.
good to see NASCAR get serious about cheating. im liking everything about the new NASCAR.
