Default New to CFD - automotive application question

As a hobby, I do club racing and other driving events. I am to the level and traveling at speeds where aerodynamics are playing a large role in the handling of the car. Most aerodynamic products for car enthusiast on my budget are geared toward 'show cars'. More for looks then actual aero effectiveness. I am in the works of trying to build my own components and would like to start by using a CFD program. Problem is, most automotive CFD programs that I have seem run in the 25,000$ range. I'm not a flipping F1 racer. Is there any CFD programs that are cheap/free that will show wind/aero flow effects?
