Gord,

 

Sorry to hear your car was stolen, that sucks.

 

How did you attach that front wing to the chassis and did you fabricate the wing or is it available somewhere? Your thoughts on the effectiveness of each wing?

The front wing was a tubular structure that had 1"x1" brackets mounted to lower frame rails, then the main frame would slide inside to attach. Remove the front wing and a licence plate holder slipped in

 

Rear wing mounted at top of rearward rollbar brace through 2 "sandwich" plates, the rear wing "struts" attach at the top of chassis on adjustable "rod-end" tubes.

 

In it's last "Hoorah" the rear wing became "adjustable" electronically, Via a servo that was wired into the Direct Port Nitrous Sstem (I know, everyone say's I'm Strange)

 

When "full throttle/Nitrous" was engaged the Rear Wing would "trim-out" and allow substantial increase in acceleration.

 

The car was powered by a Honda Fireblade Bike engine, stage 3 Dyna-jet kit, and direct-port wet nitrous.

 

All up weight of 978lbs with fuel, ran on custom 13"x10" 3-pce alloys and Hoosier slicks.

 

VERY fun car, I wish I still had it as Many years of My life and lot's of $$$$$ were invested.

 

The wings by My math and some guidence from Joe Cheng and Gary Milligan (SCCA A-Mod champions Solo) I figured somewhere around 1400-1600lbs at 57mph of downforce. They were Built by Myself and a long time Friend/F1 Fanatic.

Gord,

 

At that downforce you could drive on the ceiling! Very impressive car.

 

Also impressive is the list of cars in your signature. It's almost obscene for one person to have that many track toys, I'm very green with envy.
