I was looking for you. What did you do to make that fit since apr doesn't sell a gtc 500 for us? What's it off of? Whats the specs like riser height and is it 70" wide?

It was custom from APR directly. I can go take measurements for you if you need it. Because they are one of my sponsors they made me this wing knowing I was going big on power and wanted to get as much clean air as possible. The wing is 72" wide and I think the riser height is 8"-10". I run the wing at 0* AoA at the moment.

May I ask how much?

Now I can't decide since this might be an option haha.

Scott,

You will have to ask them directly. I am not allowed by contract to speak about my pricing. They are very customer friendly and have no problem making it for new customers.

Just got off the phone with them. Apparently they had no idea mikes cracked or the other. I said it's no big deal it was a long time ago but he seamed pretty worried.

Any who he quoted me $1830 for a GTC 500. Problem is they are out of 500's till mid June.

They must have a gtc 500 that has mounting points close like the 370z and they just include 370z mounts with that wing cause if you look at a GTR the mounts are very very wide.

Looks like Aeromotions it is since they quoted 3 day turn around.

That's funny, because I sent my cracked wing back to them to analyze and they sent me a new one (which I immediately sold).

Great packaging on the replacement one too! just a lightly wrapped wing in a big box with no stuffing or filler.

Yikes.

Well I called back and got a hold of Tony this time. Nice guy and we talked a lot. Basically we ended up that he does know you Mike and another gtc300 that snapped on a vette. He did swear things have changed as yours was older and it might have been just a fluke. He also told me wings are maintanence items just like seats and belts and helmets. After 4-5 years or what they go through, they should be replaced for weakening with the sun and downforce over time.

So we talked this time about the GT-250 as a 2D might be better for me since I don't make the power for the gtc 300 or 500. I agree I don't want to die in the straights. The GT-250 is supposed to be awesome and Martin agrees as he told me a while ago to just buy that even over his Aeromotions he was gonna sell me. It has a Gurney flap and I went with the 71". It'll have 11" raisers so base plus wing should be an inch above the roof line. Guess I'll be the first 370z with it
