with my stock car I regularly scrape the stupid plastic bit that sticks down lower than the actual stone tray upon going down even the smallest of driveways... even stock they aren't that high haha.

That's why mine fell to bits!  I put on a second one and same thing, then it ripped off at Racewars 2013 and I just tore it off and threw it away.  Haven't had one since.

 

I would like some sort of replacement made in aluminium I think, just a nice flat bit.  Would be good to get the whole underside covered/smoothed out for improved aero but that's a pipe dream.

supposedly that stupid "flap" bit that hangs down and scrapes on everything is meant to direct airflow around the sump and improve airflow efficiency... yerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrriiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiggggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhht m9-1...

I remember years ago a workmate made an under engine tray from thin plywood or similar.

 

When we reversed out to go for Friday drinks one day, it had fallen off and the rest of us thought it was left there to stop oil drips on the garage floor, until he picked it up and put it in his boot.

When the rain farks off I'll go back out and bolt it all up. 

 

 

That thing looks massive

Mine flew off too one day. How fast were you going when it came off?

It certainly is a bit laggier mate. 

 

It literally just occurred to me that I need to adjust my wg duty cycle so it stays shut for a bit longer. It is still set for the smaller turbo. #facepalm.
