Game on. Underside pics would be cool to see also. Hope your prototypes make the grade and are ready for production.

Hard to tell, but if the endplates of the Carbon wing are also CF composite, is it possible to upgrade the FRP wing to include the CF plates?
Cheers,

integlspwr, yes, we will supply more dimension data once our first batch wings come in around mid August.

cone_crushr, yes, everything on the CF wing is made of CF, including the mounting flaps and the end plates. Yes, we can put in a special order for you to get you some CF end plates for your FRP wings at additional cost. But it might be subjected to some extra wait time. Just FYI, there are no noticeable performance differences between FRP and CF end plates.

RacerJason, the approx. length is about 1650 mm.


Been trying to find a good FC candidate to fit the prototype brackets. A friend of mine actually got an FC laying around for test fit but he does not have time to come to us. So I will have to arrange a time to meet him very soon.

Again, we apologize for the delay on the FC wings. The bracket templates we got only supplied us with an approximate design dimension and hopefully the bottom dimensions would work well after being mounted. I will have to modify a lot on the current design to include the correct dimension and mounting holes for our wing.

Then, the machine shop does not like the idea of us keep making one pair of sample brackets so we are taking extra precaution this time to make sure all the dimensions will work before we pass the CAD files to them.

As far as FD wings, we will be shipping them out around mid August since the FD brackets have been verified and tested.

FD wings now ready to ship! For those of you who have sent a deposit for FD wing, please contact us regarding the remaining payment and shipping arrangement.

For FC guys, we apologize for the delay but we are still working on the brackets since we still have not gotten a test car yet. The car we hope to use is still currently in the body shop so if anyone who might have time to let us use the car for test fitting, please email us. Thanks!

Nope. I received my wing last week. For those asking dimensions, I'll do some measurements this weekend and post them up.

I guess I'm just drawing the short end of the stick - just called their number and got one of Kevin's business partners. Sounds like they are in the middle of a move. Just tried him via email again.

Some day my wing will come <sung to the tune of Some Day My Prince Will Come>........

Its taken him a little longer to get back to me in the last couple weeks but I'm not worried yet. I emailed him my shipping address for a shipping quote and haven't heard back yet. I'm guessing if they're in the middle of a move, things are slowed up a bit.

Not 'exact' measurements, but this should be close enough:

A: 66"
B: Center 12.5", sides 9.125"
C:
D: 46"
E: 9.5"
F: 10.5"
G: 6"

I don't have the wing mounted for 'C', however here are the measurements for the mount heights (which should give you and idea):

Rear: 10"
Front: 7.125"
