Great work.

As I saw my neighbour's new Porsche GT3 RS yesterday, I was reminded on your Aero Package:

Looks great. I'm sure it's effective as well.

Not sure how I feel about the black travelling up the side of the front bumper, personally maybe I'd body match it.

Kudos to the amount of work that went into it, time for the wind tunnel!

Ian, do you think you could make something small like the Canards on the below AMG GT?

I agree re the black up the sides.
After I get finished with track season, I plan to refinish in body color.
I also have a minor design revision that I want to incorporate.

I have several tack days on it now and am VERY happy with the results.
In combination with the rear wing the car is really planted and balanced nicely at speed.

I have also subjected it to a couple of inadvertent torture tests and it came through without a scratch.

I'll have some on track pics to post soon

Anything is possible, but I don't see it happening right now.
I had considered a separate canard, but after track testing I don't think it's necessary.

as to a separate design piece on the lower corner, I just don't see it.....
The car still needs the downforce of the splitter across the front.

Ian, do you mind me asking where you source your balsa out from here in the GTA ??


.... sort of off topic.....
At some point I'm going to be over-hauling the trunk on the roadster to put some better audio in the car. I've done a fair amount if fiberglass work to build trim pieces but never thought of using balsa to form the shapes. What you've done here has inspired me but with regards to achieving something completely different on another part of the car!!

We had two days at Circuit Mont Tremblant.
Absolutely loved it!
It's my new favourite track.

Yeah, the more and more I follow this thread, the more I think if this happens, I'm going to need a set. Not because of "race car", but just because this looks so damn good and like it's just meant to be there in the first place.

Damn you Ian!!!
