We make more than replicas.
Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't that just the Amuse wing with an adjustable flap? No offense because I like the idea and it will look amazing.

We are not sure about the pricing as of yet. Still working on this wing. We also have a wing that incorpates the GT wing with the Amuse wing.

That looks promising, reminds me of my Syms carbon wing for the STI and the current Oakley design porsche wing...






I see the square cutout of the piece you gotta remove to get to the adjustment screws, so that answers that question...

I gotta say the same thing as Seeyabud though... this looks a lot like an amuse wing with the center cut out and angled up a little.

Either way... looks very 1980's LeMans, which is a great thing in my book. Just needa refine it a little and hopefully make the center carbon.

Nice work.

Agree on making center carbon... and gurney flap.

If you want to sell to racers, you'll need to post the aero data on it... downforce as a function of angle and air speed. What is cord length? What wing shape / cross-section did you use, and why? etc.

Look forward to seeing it mounted.

I don't think real hardcore racers are the target market for this. There's the group that buys it for looks, there's the weekend warrior that is still concerned with how his track car looks, and then there's the guy who cares more about function than form. I think this product caters only to the first two groups, the third group is the only one that would care about aero data and if you care about aero data you're going to end up with a real wing anyway. Just my opinion.

Agreed!we aren't looking to compete with companies like APR for a fully track prepped wing. This is to give guys a functional motorized rear wing while still looking good. We will be looking to get the most out of the wing design as well. It will perform well and look good.
