Stay vigilant folks!!! Scammers are getting crafty. A member had their account hijacked and for sale ads put up. The username and date on a paper doesn’t justify sending money via bank transfer, Zelle, or PP friends and family.

Should I take off the rear mud flaps now that I have the Verus downforce diffusers ? Less drag?

i would say yes.

If you can notice the difference with or without, I would be VERY surprised

I say leave it BECAUSE RALLY CAR

The same week my mud guard arrived a rock chipped my wheel well and now it's a mini rust-fest that i have to deal with every summer. I'd highly advise against removing the guards.

I need those everything lol

I agree.

I should also add this is based on having to take the front flaps off (oem ford focus flaps) for the side skirts but I do remember how dirty my bumper used to get

why not leave the fronts on? just remove the rears. the fronts provide a lot of protection.

My rear flaps came off after my wife followed me, and said how much they flapped In the wind. Looked bad and can’t help the rear plastic.
I always wondered, why bother with flaps on a rally car?

The fronts interfered with the diffuser, a bit longer than the skirt

I do think it looked better before lol

i agree...rally cars get thoroughly abused instantly

 

[Jonny_80]

Maybe to prevent the crowd from being machine-gunned with gravel?

Not sure about the WRC, but at least for the local ARA (American Rally Association), it's required.

2022 ARA technical rules article 2.2.7 "Mud flaps - Required on all rear wheels and driving wheels"

Maybe to prevent the crowd from being machine-gunned with gravel?

Agreed, I think it's got something to do with that

Good point. I can see how gravel could be dangerous😮😂
