Aerodynamics — Form Follows Function
Much of the exterior differentiation of the Boss 302 and the Laguna Seca Package is subtle, but it all has
purpose. Each feature has a function — all working in harmony to improve aerodynamic efficiency and overall
vehicle balance. The Boss 302 and Laguna Seca deliver outstanding performance capability while maintaining
excellent stability. Here’s how:
Lower Fascia Front Air Splitter

The lower splitter is a design proven on the Boss 302R race car. While it might not look like much, the splitter
efficiently manages air under and around the front of the car, accomplishing multiple tasks:
• Reducesaerodynamiclift,helpingtokeepthefrontsuspension“planted”anddeliveringafeelingofstability,

aerodynamic downforce
(1) Front air splitter included in the Laguna Seca Package is intended for race track use only and is not legal for on-street driving. May degrade
crash performance and void vehicle warranty. Must be installed by customer.
