So, three months later, I've finally got my new wing, Aeromotions, static version, and am ready for VIR next weekend with NASA and Forged.
I purchased the wing from our other resident pro driver bkleeman (Brian Kleeman, DWW Motorsports , Pirelli World Challenge series) Not only did the old wing crack, but where the smallish mounts attached to the decklid, the force pushing down on the hatch actually cracked the aluminum skin. Since we had to repair that, and I didn't want it happening again, my body shop, Autoglo, in Tucker GA, (great shop, way better than any other I have EVER dealt with!!!!!!), made some custom formed, I think 1/8 or 3/32" plates to spread the force out over a larger area, then panel bonded, bolted and blended them into the hatch, and mounted the new wing to that. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()
