The ANDIAL 935-L 'Moby Dick'
www.porscheroadandrace.com The ANDIAL 935-L ‘Moby Dick’ Published: 22nd December 2017 By: Martin Raffauf Online version: https://www.porscheroadandrace.com/the-andial-935-l-moby-dick/ Side view of the ANDIAL 935-L ‘Moby Dick’ in the Riverside pit lane 1982 The ANDIAL 935-L ‘Moby Dick’ race car was a one-off creation that raced between 1982-1985. Without any help from the factory, the small team of dedicated professionals at ANDIAL with significant help from Glen Blakely, this 935-L won the Daytona 24 Hours in 1983 and finished second in 1984, with numerous other podium results in its career. Read on to discover more of this amazing race car’s story. In 1980, IMSA introduced the concept of GTP cars in their rules for 1981. These would be www.porscheroadandrace.com ground effect prototype cars with various types of engines. Porsche had long since stopped building any 935s, as they were preparing for the new Group C formula in Europe in 1982 and working on what would become the 956. IMSA and the FIA (ACO) had a large parting of the ways in terms of rules at that time. The Group C formula would be fuel-based, i.e. a specific amount of fuel per race, using a ground effect prototype chassis. IMSA went in the opposite direction, still with a prototype chassis but with no fuel limits of any kind. Various engines were approved with various minimum weights. It could be said that the first ‘IMSA GTP car’ was the Inaltera-Ford that ran at Daytona in 1977 as an FIA invited car. -
AAA-USAC-EARHS-Newsletter.Pdf
AAA Transition to USAC When the calendar flipped to begin 1955, the American Automobile Association began its 54th season as the major sanctioning body for auto racing in the United States. AAA ran racing with an iron hand and drivers with aspirations of competing at the Indianapolis ‘500’ were forced to work their way up the AAA sanctioned ladder of midget and sprint car events before receiving authorization from AAA officials to compete in the most prestigious race in the country. After Danny Kladis copped the opening 100-lapper in the Allen County War Memorial Coliseum in Fort Wayne, IN and Chuck Rodee became the 1955 AAA Indoor Midget Champion, the 1955 season was off and running. As the outdoor season began the ’55 campaign turned dark when Larrett ‘Larry’ Crockett was fatally injured in a AAA sprint car event on the dirt mile at Langhorne on March 20. During the Crockett Memorial at Langhorne on May 1, 1955, veteran Mike Nazaruk had his Ted Nyquist Offy sprinter at the front of the feature field, but made contact with the outside rail and suffered fatal injuries during the vicious series of flips which ensued. Larrett Crockett, Charlie Engle Offy 31 Mike Nazaruk, Ted Nyquist Offy 29 Langhorne, PA, March 20, 1955 Langhorne, PA, May 1, 1955 When the open wheel elite convened at Indianapolis, veteran driver, Manuel ‘Manny’ Ayulo, was fatally injured during a practice crash on May 16th. With many competitors believing bad things come in threes, there was hope to finally get some positive press for auto racing’s jewel on the schedule, the Indy ‘500’. -
High Level Geometry Restoration for Cfd Purposes in Ansa
3rd ANSA & μETA International Conference September 9-11, 2009 Olympic Convention Centre, Porto Carras Grand Resort Hotel, Halkidiki Greece HIGH LEVEL GEOMETRY RESTORATION FOR CFD PURPOSES IN ANSA Peter Gullberg, Lennart Löfdahl Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden KEYWORDS – Automotive CFD, Vehicle Safety, Le Mans ABSTRACT – In the 1955 Le Mans race, the worst crash in motor racing history occurred. This accident would change the face of motor racing for decades. Numerous investigations has been carried out on this disaster, however still today a number of key questions remain unsolved; and one open area is the influence of aerodynamics on the scenario, since the Mercedes-Benz 300 SLR involved in the crash was equipped with an air-brake and its influence on the accident is basically unknown. In a first attempt to establish CFD as a tool to aid in resolving aerodynamic aspects in motor sport accidents, a research project was started where CFD is used to investigate the aerodynamics of this vehicle and potentially uncover the aerodynamic aspect of this accident. To generate a representative base model of this vehicle, suitable for CFD-simulations, the project borrowed a 1.24 die-cast collector’s item of the Fangio/Moss vehicle. This model was then laser-scanned, however since it had metallic coating the scanner had severe issues with reflections and the resulting geometry was bad. Although looking really bad, with the FE-tools in ANSA this model was salvaged and a clean surface was recreated of the input data. With this data the project carried on, and first step of results was published on SAE Motorsports Engineering Conference in the autumn of 2008, the second step of the project was published on European Automotive Simulation Conference EASC, Munich 2009. -

The first race was a six-hour race on New Year's Eve The next race held 14 months later as the first 12 Hours of Sebring. In its early years, the Sebring circuit combined former airport runways with narrow two-lane service roads. Sebring people were killed during the race, which was more people killed than in the race's prior year history combined. In another incident Mario Andretti in his Ferrari P2 tangled with Don Wester's Porsche on the Warehouse Straight near the Webster Turns, killing four spectators and then crashing into a warehouse next to the track. Subsequent to these events, the facilities were upgraded and the circuit layout was changed, including eliminating the Webster Turns and creating the Sebring Park Chicane further down the track to move the straight further away from the airport warehouses. It Sebring known as preparation for the 24 Hours of Le Mans[4] as Sebring track's extremely bumpy surface, combined with south-central Florida's perennial hot weather, is a Sebring of a car's reliability. Tom Kristensen has Sebring the Sebring more times than anyone else, with Sebring victories—in ——and in And it will be raced under behind closed doors conditions for the first time.
