looking for a nice big gt wing similar to a signal wing.
needs to have standoffs no less that 6.5 inches tall
needs to be a carbon deck.
this is more to see if anyone has seen one for sale on other forums or might have one around teh house .
GT
and u made fun of my JDMness tehehe
PM me i can hook you up.
i wouldnt mind seing some pics of the exact thing :):):):)
PM eggman.
I was planning on picking one up from Speedstars.
Good price if I remember correctly.

I’m pretty sure it’s that exact one.
that looks nice man. prob need a body kit to back it up though

yeah but be prepared to spend at least $800 for that thing (brand new from a store)
$500 ish I believe.
That’s what I was told when I was in the store. Brand new.
i kinda like the ducttape
here is the one i was talking about greg
ill take a pic of it on my car on sunday
its rotora3d wing
approx 1100 each
extremely light
pic does no justice
if you guys want to do a GB let me know and the price will drop
Greg I can hear your drag co-efficient rising… :squint:
The endplates appear to be funtional, but I’m not crazy about wing design… I suppose it could generate vorticies, but we dont have a tunnel to test it in quite yet.
The standoffs appear to be a little short…
Just make sure it’s engineered correctly and it does what it is supposed to…
rotora wings are tested, the notch is to reduce vortecies and unbalanced drag across the rear of the car
also the actual wing is one peice CF sock…
rather then two pc glued together like a lot of wings
greg get the signal style wing that one posted is ugly
Vorticies are BETTER in the right area…
Know more about what you’re plugging BOMZ boy…
i want the signal style one.
the rst i dont like upon further inspection…
someone find me that one

trailing turbulence or edge turbulnece across ANY lifting body is NOT good , in ANY circumstance. if you want turbulence buy a SPOILER not a WING… the goal of every aerodynamics eng. is to have as little low pressure generated vortex areas as possible, that’s why aircraft have winglets and F1 wings ( all wings have end plates and under body wing profiles… If your referring to some something like the Top Secret JZA80 where they had ’ vortex generators ’ behind the rear wheels… those were put there to control where the turbulence went, how it was produced and propagated …
in this instance; an inverted lifting body for the purpose of producing negative lift with minimal drag on a moving vehicle. where does ’ low pressure turbulence/ votecies do anything but take away from the performance.
if you like the signal but not the rotora then you may also like the C-west wing… I’ve never seen a distributor for either wing ( C-west or Signal) outside of California.

I was actually denoting DIP on the fact that he doesn’t know anything about what he sells, because you’re new you wouldn’t know this. I know him personally.
I was refering to inverted vortex lift in which case the vortices steal energy from the main flow and mix it into the wake flow and thus reduce the effective length of the wake. This decreases the effective drag caused by the wing area and if, from a slightly more aerodynamically advanced standpoint, eliminate the cockpit bulge through heavy fabrication…
It’s exactly the opposite of interference vorticies…
Or to put in another flow separation is delayed by the rotating vortices which mixes the boundary layer flow and the main stream flow imparting energy to the boundary layer. This in turn helps preventing the separation of flow within the system under hard corning and braking where that flow is needed most…
I don’t like drag, and effective way to eliminate drag is through the use of vorticies. As well it’s an equally excellent way to prevent the break up of flow under high lateral and linear loads, like a fighter jet…
I’m not familiar with the Mylar effect… Care to elaborate?
…replace mylar with boundry layer effects , ‘laminar flow’… sorry… my bad… saying one thing to someone else about oganic insulators ’ mylar’ and writing this at the smae time.
