I've never thought of using a rivnut in that application. Great idea.1.25 inch P clamp with a rivnut mounted in it. You can see them in my autocross youtube videos.
That second element does move around a bit. At least one support, maybe two, added would get rid of the flopping around.The only reason this one isn’t going in the trash is because I’m considering putting it on my lawnmower. All aluminum from Amazon. I think it was like 200 bucks. Looks fine but the upper foil wiggles in the wind like crazy. I just ordered an ICBeamer on Amazon. Mounting holes are about 6 inches off but I’ll just fab a plate to adapt.
That's a good looking wing!! Love the adjust-ability...Has anybody tried Racebred yet? They have an aluminum wing in a variety of widths, 68" is $735.00 including endplates. You specify bracket spacing when ordering. They claim to have them in stock with shipping 1-2 weeks from order for raw aluminum, or 3-4 weeks for powder coating.
Here's what I'm thinking of: https://racebredcomponents.com/products/250rs-aluminum-gt-wing-airfoil?variant=39273252192391
Yes, agreed regarding adjustability - that's what got me interested in it. It's also very clean looking, and there's a decent downforce, flow, and drag analysis in the images on the page.That's a good looking wing!! Love the adjust-ability...
It's gotta be at least the same track width as your rear tires otherwise it looks weird.Worth noting that the above site has a 60" and a 65" variant available for slightly less, for those of us that don't want to look like a 747 taking off.
It needs a long puller/pusher lever to activate the DRS from the cabin!Made a prototype F1 inspired 2nd element support bracked and tested. Looks to have taken care of that element flopping around. Video comparison to come.View attachment 33584
I like this wing. Any chance this is still something that is available? do you have a link or anything you can share?Just my $.02. Why pay HUNDREDS of dollars for a carbon fiber wing on a, let's face it, economy hot car.??. I payed about $60 for an aluminum 2 blade one from ebay, and I think it looks great. Of course I bought the DFG uprights to make it work. View attachment 16607View attachment 16607View attachment 16608
This is a great option, happy to hear the positive feedback. Was he up for welding the mounting brackets too or did you have that done locally?I like my wing logic wings, also like the price vs. some of the competitors. Mike is fast to answer and great to work with as well.
Cut a 60" down to 48" for the front and custom-made second element. 70" for the rear wing. 15x10 with 275s coming this week to fill the gap back there on the width of the tires. View attachment 41440
