WOW. That's a pretty darn good looking kit! I bet that wing would help at track speeds seeing as it would have plenty of clean air to hit the element itself. I'll see what I can find out about that kit, and the possibility of carrying it here.

I don't care much about the rest of the kit, but I want that wing so badly. Its a good halfway point between the ugly/useless OEM BRZ spoiler, and a race wing the size of a cocktail bar.

I know Mike at Kognition is working on a SuperGT/JGTC Styled widebody aero package for the FRS including one of his signature rear wings as well.

Way big isn't it? Is the school intense enough? Who is your instructor(s)?

Have you learned the zen of autox, Grasshopper?

Wait until the instructors' challenge tomorrow.

I have little desire to throw a race wing on my (mostly) street car. This thing doesn't have the power to rock a wing like that on the street. I'm not opposed to one for track days and such, but not for the other 95% of my driving around. The nur spec wing, while garish, loud and huge, compliments the rest of the car much better.

This wing:



It's functional, it's super light, and it's sexy as hell and I must have one. Wish TRD would scoop this up and make the damn thing instead of making trinkets for this car...

I want the rear diffuser and exhaust from that car, not necessarily the wing, though it IS a nice wing. I like the crazy adjustability of it.

Heyward Wagner and Bryan Heitkotter were my instructors yesterday. They're both amazing drivers and great teachers.

As for the zen, I'm making progress.

The videos always make things look so tame compared to what it feels like when driving or riding in the car during the event.

You should use the torque app track recorder plugin next time you are out. That way we can watch you drive and see how the car is working

Here is one on a actual track, most the videos are just in town.
