Hey Mike. I think your looking at the results of my wing. Your wing results are in this link. Mine are in the second link. I hope I'm not reading it wong. Please correct me if so.

Also my new alignment specs. Man this cars handles so much better. The turn in so wonderful. Ten times better than my last alignment. Mike thanks for recommending these places. They were both great with great people.

Wing looks really good and sounds like its making a nice difference functionality wise!

Car just went up 2 points in the aggressive looks category

SPOHN · 10-17-2011, 06:55 PM

More trim painted. Looks best in dimmer light.

SPOHN · 10-17-2011, 07:28 PM

I made it myself. I'm crafty sometimes.

No, its my wing. You need to read the verbage, which I never did until today either. Those numbers are Newtons. You need to divide them by 4.44822 to get pounds of downforce.

SPOHN · 10-17-2011, 07:29 PM

Oh, well that sucks. Even though I could feel it today. I still can adjust the angle to pick up some. That's going to some require track time to see what happens.

Mike · 10-17-2011, 07:35 PM

oh, it definitely makes a 'feelable' difference! I still lost 2mpg towing my car on an open trailer regardless of what the numbers are and also picked up 10mph on the Road Atlanta esses and lots 7 on the big straight.

SPOHN · 10-17-2011, 07:37 PM

I can't wait to get to Road Atlanta next month. New wing and alignment. I'm ready. Going to pick up some XP 8's also. Maybe this time I can ride with yea.

SPOHN · 10-22-2011, 04:10 PM

Picked this up today. Carbotech XP 8's, ARP studs for the front (already had them on the rear), and Redline MT85 transmission fluid. Can't wait to get it on Monday.

You're gonna need more fluid than that for the tranny man
