It's way cheaper though.

After seeing you post this before I've been concerned about mine but I feel better knowing they replaced it.

Not even a year, if I get 4-5 years I will be good with that. Probably 10-12 track days on it.

Should be fine. Sell to a street guy one day and get another. Also make sure it never gets hit or sat on etc. the vette I was talking about i guess had a little hit coming out of a trailer. Might have been enough to mess it up...or shipped like Mikes haha

JWillis72 · 05-12-2015, 07:06 PM

If it was hit you really can't blame the manufacturer. In Mikes case while no excuse he was at Daytona (if I remember correctly) probably the biggest G force/ downforce track in the country. I spend most of my track time at Sebring and Homesteads road course, no where close to those Gs or downforce.

and mine definitely didn't have age/sun weakening. The car is kept in a garage except for the 1 weekend per month it sees the track. I think it was about a year and a half old at the time it failed.

JWillis72 · 05-12-2015, 08:26 PM

I agree that sucks, was I right it was at Daytona?

yes, daytona. The aeromotions did fine there this year :P

synolimit · 05-13-2015, 07:03 AM

It'll be interesting how solid the GT-250 will be. I don't think I'm gonna put 950lbs on it like Aeromotions but I hope it's strong.

Yeah Daytona is notorious for being hard on wings... It may have just been a weak one in the batch. I haven't seen another one fail yet so I am comfortable with continuing to run their products.

Can I play?

Custom all carbon Varis Euro Edition wing. Contrary to popular belief and from all the pictures floating around on the internet, the GT wing is not mounted to the Zele trunk spoiler. In fact, it's not even touching the Zele spoiler. It's mounted directly onto the hatch and is designed to look like they're mounted together.

Also features a fully sealed flat bottom from front splitter to rear diffuser. The entire bottom of the car is completely flat using chassis mounted panels. These panels are so strong that we had guys doing pull ups on every panel while the car was on the lift. Also custom canards and fender liner panels were made too. The two support rods in the front are connected to a bracket that's directly connected to the chassis.
