Looks good Tom! I am not a huge wing fan, but for you I know it serves its purpose completly! So because of that I think it looks good too

Bet you can't wait to get back on the track to show her off!

Very nice, Tom. Beautiful finished product. Do you think you will have enough front DF to complement what you have added in the rear? That car should be pretty light now. Have you removed AC compressor and condensers? If so, do you know the weight savings?

When is your first track event?

Bigger wing needed. Don't under-compensate

Looking good Doctor!

SSSHHHHHHHEEEEEEEESSSSSSSHHHHHHH That turned out amazingly Tom. An absolute track beast.... the car makes it darn clear what its intentions are Tom. Congrats on the outcome. It is a track freak. Awesome!!!! Darn, my mind is churning again....must... save... money.

Have you noticed any difference in handling on the track with the rear deck/GT2 bumper combo?
