Aftermarket SCOOPED hood now available.

I guess back in line at the hood trade thread.

 

My thinking for this hood is: you put a non closed box intake on cause you think you have a "functional hood scoop". Youre stopped in traffic meanwhile your hood is collecting water more specifically at the two raised sides of the scoop. The accumulated rain drops aren't running sufficiently off the front due to the angle of the hood before the scoop. Now when you start moving the water is going to move towards the rear of the car because physics, maybe not air. Now there is water in the scoop of the hood and gravity pulls the water downwards and onto your underlying filter. Eventually leading to a saturdated filter.

A scenario I think of is a traffic control light on a highway entrance ramp.

I've never taken any physics courses so there might be some factors I'm missing. Maybe a physicist or an engineer can enlighten us?
