it is a gigantic 67" gtc300 wing. Not small GTC200 wing. Emilio sells both.

Don't think I ever had the chance as a s2k noobie.

William was so proud of showing off his big-ass "wing" yesterday at the track. The action was obviously a psychological extension of his "wang."

I did exactly one hot lap with it, went 4.5sec faster and won street

4.5 seconds!? That could be even better than upgrading my old S-02's to R888s.

stock suspension is designed for staggered tires, so wing will work even better when it's non-staggered + oem suspension, but when it comes to staggered + big wing or suspension for non-staggered + big wing, it probably wouldn't be that big (4.5s) of a difference

maybe staggered tires would match better with level 1 wing and you get less points, it's all about compromise.

Question: 225/245 R888 + APR 200 > 205/225 Z1 Star Spec + APR 300?

Alas, 225/245 R888 + APR300 would put me into Modified, where I would get absolutely slaughtered. Hehe...

I didn't get a chance to do any clear laps with Rob's VOLTEX wing but it def felt nice. Even without a wing I think I can still find another 1.8-2.0 seconds.

225/255 R888 + APR200
255/255 Z1 + APR300
225/255 Z1 + APR300 + widen track
255/255 Z1 + APR 200 + widen track

i think all these combos are pretty close, slightly different advantage at different tracks
