It was being used in the late 70's, but there was concern that it was allowing them to maintain really high speed in corners (about 3-4ton of down force). The reason for banning venturi undertrays was a safety concern. These undertrays are used a lot in sports car and prototype racing now (eg LeMans). It is a very efficient way of creating downforce, however it is very sensative to ride height and pitch, which is why two mercs flipped at lemans a few years back. [Report message to a moderator]
