Default Turn 14 splitter

http://speed.academy/s2000-custom-sp...how-to-part-2/



Dont know if you guys have been following the ASS2000 build these guys are doing, but as for a budget track build it's a good little setup. (See youtube episodes here: https://www.s2ki.com/s2000/topic/112...oject-ass2000/ ) In the latest episode they showed a full aero install and they had a splitter from Turn 14 that looked pretty legit, and the undertray seemed larger than any previous splitter I've seen before. Wanted your guys' take on the construction and dimensions. Was thinking about giving them a call, but it seems like a pricey piece.

Looks very nice. Thicker than most splitters I see as well. I guess if you know how to do that in your garage their process doesn't seem that difficult. They don't even vacuum form it like i have seen others.

you can always wrap something thinner. once you have one layer you can pop it off if you have release agent and then bond that to a super thin piece and coat the other side. I like the vacuum method as it insures the cf is truely impregnated with resin. The way he does it seems like he just spreads it over.

My understanding is that Turn 14 is just a huge part distributor, and they don't actually make parts, so I wonder what company actually made the splitter.

In the video they mention who made the splitter. It sounded like it was a composite company somewhere in Ontario (Canada)

I can't imagine wanting to put something like that on a track car. It's a disposable item. This is my splinter from last event:

Ah yes...my bad Turn 14 is just their sponsor/distributor, the company is C3 Composites, they mostly do snowmobile parts according to their website.
