Airfoil Design for Race Car Applications


Hello all,

I am looking to do some analysis on a couple of airfoils for race car applications. I am interested in a low-drag with moderate lift design and also a maximum lift design.

Hoping someone knows of some 2-D geometries/coordinates off the top of their head or can point me in the right direction. From what I have read some of the more common lift-to-drag ratios seem to be between 8-10, but don't quote me on that. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks.
