So nearly one year later I returned to the Daytona infield for the first CFR SCCA PDX event for 2013. Its cool to see the effect of seat time time. I wish I had data on my first time there but I have data now.

Since the first time I've added an APR GTC200, WASP track front splitter, and swapped the VFAC2 for an AEM 1052. The wing either mentally gives me more balls in high speed turns or it is actually working. Either way a wing is a good idea for track cars, thanks rob!. I also added some safety equipment with an RSG single diag rollbar, 6 pt harness and BC bucket seat.


Here was my best lap. 59.265

The wing is actually working. That feeling of instability doesn't ever go away without some type of rear downforce.

If there were a way to simply remove "lift" of the rear end I think the S2000 could do just fine without a wing, however I think the easiest way to remove the lift is to simply get a wing which adds downforce.

Maybe some type of duckbill spoiler would work but....that's not very manly.


Good progress!
