So where are the titanium skid blocks on there?
Just around the measurement hole on the front of the plank.
Thanks, I was expecting bigger than that.
As ever there's a long rule to describe the skid...
3.7.11 Skids
The lower surface of the plank may be fitted with flush mounted metal skids which :
a) May only be fitted in place of plank material.
b) Have a total area no greater than 20000mm² when viewed from directly beneath the car.
c) Are no greater than 4000mm² in area individually when viewed from directly beneath the car.
d) Are fitted in order that their entire lower surfaces are visible from directly beneath the car.
e) Must have a minimum cross sectional thickness of 15mm across its external boundaries in plan view.
The minimum wall thickness between an internal fixing hole and the external boundaries of the skid must be no less than 7.5mm.
f) Must have an upper surface no more than 3mm below the reference plane.
g) Must be designed such that they are secured to the car using the fasteners described in Article 3.7.12 and that, when viewed from directly beneath the car, no part of the skid is more than 50mm from the centre line of a fastener which passes through that skid.
h) Must be made from Titanium alloy.
