Anonymous Poll - What was your final "Winter Mod" Budget

[PeteInCT]

I'm not crazy about the pillars, IMO looks like a prototype to me.

No honey, that's the same wing I had on it before. It must have gotten wet and expanded.....

You think she'll notice ??? Doesn't really matter, she pays all the bills anyway

 

[CaliMR]

Too small, needs to be bigger than my old wing



Mine was white like my Boss




I think I like the NASCAR one the best, but I'm worried it might actually create downforce and affect the balance.

YEA BOY ! THAT'S THE TICKET ! GO FOR IT !

If you buy it, they will follow....

If your going to get a wing go the right way. Put it up where it gets clean airflow not some art deco low mounted trunk lid foo foo. ;D

The TR wing has a lot more surface area than the one you posted although it doesn't sit as high. My understanding is the wing has been tested and provides more downforce than the LS and less then the G-Stream so it's functional.

Which Nascar spoiler are you talking about? If you mean the GT500 spoiler it provides a little bit less downforce than the LS. For most of us neither is going to upset the balance enough to worry about it.

I am disappointed in all of you for ever talking about this......

THE WINTER ISN'T OVER!!

 

[PeteInCT]

B.S. BABY - 65 Degrees on Sunday !!!!!

I hereby officially start the "Spring Mods" season ! ;D

Adam's right, you have 11 more days to keep spending money

 

[PeteInCT]

Oh, and YOU'RE stopping in 11 days ?? ?? ?? ??

Someone call FRPP, American Muscle, CJ Pony, Steeda, MGW, MAx Motorsports, etc., etc. and tell them they should all just close up shop now cause Gary is officially going cold turkey in 11 days

(You do realize this is just good therapy for my own sickness, don't you ? )

Made by RTR, I think I like that it is the opposite of the one on my old car, which I always wanted to shave but never got around to it.

Now you're RATIONALIZING

 

[VoodooBoss]

I like the looks of the RTR but have no idea what downforce it provides.

 

[CaliMR]

Based on looking at it and my having once (actually never) stayed at a holiday express, I would say it gives as much as the LS wing. Anything low is not going to give a ton. I doubt it gives enough to upset the balance even at max speed, and it could always be accounted for with other settings. I will probably eventually get it, it is either that or the GT500 wing since I don't want to drill more holes.


Needs a Gurney flap though.

As I said, I had that obnoxious wing for years on my old car so I don't want anything too wild.

Get the GT500 paint it black and paint the Gurney flap white. 8) Similar to this one.

 

[CaliMR]

My car is white. I would paint it all black, and the gurney red. Because racecar
