I was wondering but does anybody else have only 3 holes for angle adjustment on their voltex wing? It seems like most wings i've seen have 6 adjustment holes instead of 3. This is a voltex type 2 1600mm from evasive. BTW the three holes is for the back of the wing.

Quick question, from an areodynamic standpoint, is there a noticeable difference with a GT wind and duckbill mounted?
I would like to go the same route but I was wondering what effects this has on handling.

K1 lab wind tunnel tested their ducktail wing. combined with GT wing it does make a big difference in downforce. Our Car uses it as well as a few other s2000's in japan such as TOP Fuel.

Good to know!
I'm sure the suspension needs to tuned to conform to the new difference in downforce. IE, stiffer spring rates?

Sorry for the thread jack, just curious on the way aerodynamics work.

yes every car will need to be changed accordingly.

What is the difference between the different types of voltex wings? from type 1-7 aside from looks where can I see differences between them from an aerodynamic stand point?

Ha! Thanks.

Pretty sure whichever car was on Evasive's website beat me to it, hopefully it helps in dropping my lap times.
