I'm looking for ideas to fab up my very own rear wing for high speed track driving.
Show me some pics and tell me what you know. It will be removable and I want to mount it to the rear bumper through the bumperette holes. Thanks KT |

Trekkor, a more appropriate approach for the motor you currently have might be to put a more conservative front spoiler on your car. You are creating quite a bit of down force on the front of your car with your "sweeper dam". Giving you high speed lift in the rear. I had a GT front air dam on my 914-6 RS car and no rear spoiler....car would be stable at all but the highest speeds.
Since you already have the rear duck tail I would go to a smaller front spoiler like the old HPH style or an LE air dam... Should even things back out.... With a big rear spoiler and your relatively small engine you are going to be defeating yourself.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |
