I'm working on a track car that will primarily be used for hillclimbs and track events (high speed stuff) with autocross being secondary.
I've been studying and researching aero modifications till I'm dizzy and wondered what options others are using besides the GT racing predator wing? If you have real world experience I'd love to hear what you're using, mounting tips/ pics, and thoughts in general. I'll be running in classes dictated by displacement only, so rules will not be a limiting factor to size, shape etc. Thanks for your time, Andrew |

Tony- The wing convo came up because I was planning a splitter very similar to what you have there. I opted for an IMSA airdam for ease of mounting the oil cooler, brake ducting and mine had the integrated lip which will allow a splitter to be easily mounted.
I'm not sure the "GT" rear spoiler does much as far as downforce with the 914 roof line being what it is and thought with a splitter I may have too much front grip (although we do have our engine weight back there) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) Beautiful work on the front rail! |
