2005 I2B Concept Project Raven Le Mans Prototype

The first I2B Project is called Raven. In basics, it was designed to be a LeMans prototype for a European super car manufacturer. The conception was classic - two wheel drive with a longitudinal middle engine. The profile of the car was designed especially to has the lowest as possible center of gravity and the lowest air resistance.
To clear the design our first step was to build a clay model of the car in 1:10 scale. Some basic calculation for air resistance were made on Fluent. The first conception did not have enough down force so we decided to put a rear wing which at low speed would lay on the back end of the car.
