I'd be interested in your 9 lives wing if that's also something that is not needed for drifting

ha! Not needed but I love the look too much. Drifting is also about style and the wing delivers!

I had to try, haha. If you ever want to get rid of it, you have an interested buyer here.

Also not sure if people check the classified section frequently, but I've got a couple things for sale there as well. Most notably a set of new 315/30/18 Nankang AR1's (same width as 305 NT01's) and my ApexPro lap timer. If you're interested please reach out!

FYI for anyone gearing up for track season, I still have my trans cooler, diff cooler, and Apex Pro lap timer for sale.

Got Laguna this Saturday so trying to button this thing up. With any luck the aero balance will be biased too much towards the front and I’ll “need” a wing

How many inches off the ground does your splitter sit? It looks great!!

 

[Scootsmcgreggor]

It was about 4.5”.

It was about 4.5”.

Do you feel the 9LR wing is sufficient to balance out the splitter + vents? Curious what angle you run it at

 

[Scootsmcgreggor]

Yes plenty of wing for that splitter I was only at 3* AOA. Based on that I’m pretty sure even if I got the splitter down around 3” where it can really do some work It would be enough wing.

Once per year a drift event at Sonoma is held where they break down the track into a few sections and us delinquents get to have at it. This year they ran a new layout where you run CCW up the eases that are usually after T7, around the little island and around T7 finishing up the straight between tue Carousel and T7. Was a blast, hard not to enjoy bouncing off the rev limiter at the top of 3rd at 80mph!

I'm nominating the rear-3/4 view pic for the 2025 TMO calendar. Make sure you send it in when time rolls around next year.

 

[Tonymustang302]

Those are absolutely calendar worthy pix

Ha! Thank you boys!
