Lol, I'm working on that too, 13kgs down already, at least another 10kg before world time attack and I'll be happy.
I was the heaviest by far out of the drivers last year lol

it reduces friction on the gear faces cringle,which in turn reduces the heat.

It also slightly reduces the chance of fatiguing or small cracks forming on any rough spots.

I have an ex v8 supercar wing blade that will have custom
Uprights made. It will most likely have a frame in (or under) the boot to mount it solidly.
I certainly won't be able to mount it directly to the boot as it
Will rip the top off pretty quickly I'm sure.
It will also have a rear diffuser and special floor pan

It will be down force you generating so boot will be pushing down not up, but it surely will need a frame to support it regardless.

Yes and a side effect of downforce is drag, which will try to push the wing off the back of the boot, this will try and pull the wing off the boot.

Yea righto. How much downforce do they generate?
Like a f1 car they say can drive upside down so maybe they make 600kg at 200 kph on the rear alone?

I cant tell you an exact amount of downforce it will generate on my car sorry mate, but I do have an ARC downforce meter
that I will use in testing to find the best setting. The best balance between drag and downforce needs to be found.

Im sure I wont be able to drive mine upside down though :P

Yep, they tell me just water but surely it must have some abrasive material to come up so well.

I have also purchased another thing I can't afford that is on the way.
