Default NASA TTC Aero Question - APR 67" GT-250 Legal?

Is the APR GT-250 67" legal for TTC? The rules state a wing can't exceed the width of the car. Where are they measuring from? Do the mirrors count? Google says the car is 69 inches wide.

John Wallace and Joel Morrison run a GT-250 in TTC. I believe they both have the 67". I know I have the 67" and it seems pretty damn close to the width of the car. Google says the Honda S2000 is 68.9" wide.

Ok cool. I just wanted to make sure someone else was running the wing in TTC. For some reason I thought John was running the GTC-200. King_Tut, are those the stock risers that come with it?

John definitely has the GT-250 with custom end plates. No those aren't the stock stands that come with the wing if you just order the S2000 version from APR or Evasive. I contacted APR and asked for taller stands and they said you have to run the wider base plates for the taller stands.

Doesn't the wing have to stay inside "the shadow of the car" for NASA rules?

TTC is dead now so this is moot
