The car is getting epic. I love the cage, and I love all the choices so far. Thanks so much for keeping us all current.

But you're putting on scoops to solve a problem you don't have with no way of telling whether or not they even help? That makes no sense to me. I'm all for functional scoops, but it seems like you're putting the scoops first and the function second. To each his own, but since you asked, I vote no.

Likewise with routing to the diff cooler - the question I would ask is: does it need additional cooling? If not, then all you're doing is screwing up the aerodynamics of the car and pumping air under the body from above, which is a total no-no. The air volume is probably too small to matter, but it just seems kind of silly in such an otherwise well-prepped car.
