Default It works, It really works : )

I took the car out for a ride today because the daily driver is getting a clutch install done.
I was driving down US 19 on my way to New Port Richey doing about 50/60 MPH. When I was hit with a few good head wind gusts. Guessing from how hard they hit I would say the wind speed was about 40/50 MPH.
The front of my car dropped down hard When the wind let up the front end came back up. Wow what a weird feeling I

I haven't seen your S in a while. Photos look really good. Need to hitch another ride with you. I think she is just about ready for the track.

Need wind tunnel testing!

Interesting to see if it rips the front bumper off at 150.

I am confident that the splitter idea will wreak havoc on a front end like mine (very thin fiberglass)

The INGS kit is a race kit designed to be replaced by very rich race teams not low budget, medium pimpin', modders like me .

I fear when we get around to designing mine it will need much reinforcemnt underneath and or anchor points far back under the splash guarding.
