Active front splitter

Post

This idea is for an actively actuated and damped front splitter.

How is this Legal?
It does not move more than the allowed deflection. It works dynamically only. It pushes back with force when the cars start to porpoise but it's position doesn't move outside of the allowed movement .

It meets the stiffness requirements of the rules when it is static.

Why not just use a intrinsically damped splitter?? Well that one won't change at the short response times. The active one will work in the Megahertz frequencies.

The result is that propoising will be redeuced and the driver should get better feel under the braking as the car balance shifts forward.
