Someone once told me engineers make good assumptions are you in the industry v67gsr? Would love to hear more about your assumption and calculations on the load bearing force at 45 degree angle.
Do you think his setup is meant to handle the amount of pizzas he claims it can hold?

Please. If you seriously think your creation is worthy, at least admit it is your own car. Don’t give $hit like “I talked to the owner” unless you have Schizophrenia.
Your pizza example does not resemble what is happening to the mounting location. Do some study before you start arguing. I am no engineer but I do know a bit about aero because I paid a lot of attention in this topic in the past 7 years. I hate to say this but the way you do your aero resemble a lot of ricer and time attack wannbe. Do yourself a favor, redesign it, don’t be a joke and a ticking time bomb moving around town. Last thing we want is someone head got chopped off because you refused to accept some basic physic.
