I take it that the Spoon brace doesn't work with the front undertray.

I wonder if I can make a custom brace to run both.

Anyways, do you notice a more stable rear end with the new diffuser?

Yea, the spoon bracing doesn't work, the axle trays were setup for stock bracing. It would be easy to simply cut a few holes and run the spoon x-brace, but I couldn't cut dry carbon. Wet carbon would be easier b/c it wouldn't cost as much.

As for testing out the panels, I would like to set up a few temp spots and measure how much hotter the engine bay is or cooler with front underpanel installed as well as the hubs on the front axles for brake cooling. As for the rear, I wanted to measure the temp of the diff fluid to see if that would be affected by blocking airflow to it. It's easy to plum some cooling ducts to it, but I'll see if that's necessary. I want to test high speed handling too, there's a perfect track out here, willow springs, where aerodynamics play a huge role in a 120mph (full throttle 5th gear) sweeper. We'll see, it's too early to make butt feeling judgements on it.
