Too bad it's so ugly. Once it's retired from racing, Tcoat can buy it and put it out for hire as a snow plow.

It's not only a photos. It's actual article about HKS GTS800... so it's in general section & not in photo/vid section

That's a hell of a spatula on the front of the car. @VeloxEric, what do you think the airfoil-shaped uprights on the sides of the splitters are for? It seems like they curve in to touch the body, so they would trap air at the front instead of directing it somewhere.

More consistent front end downforce in yaw would be my guess.

I think you're right. More pics in the article show them as cupped; the pics in the thread make it seem vertical.

Well, trapping air is pretty much how a splitter makes downforce- if the splitter just sticks out the side as a flat plane that part is not really doing much (except being very pitch sensitive). These use an airfoil shape instead of your standard endplate and fence, which probably means more force but less drag. Andrew has even applied for a patent on this.
