gt300 is 67"
They have 61" for the GTC-300, but check out these downforce # before you choose which wing you want.

I know people with stripped out '92 civics that would give you $75 and their watch for that.

I have decided on the APR GT200 s2k specific wing. The 300 is simply overkill for the track speeds im usually at and the J's is both hard to find and overpriced imo.

Sounds like it

You know the slower you go, the bigger the wing you actually need to make any downforce, right? (I'm assuming you were meaning slower track speeds in your previous post).

Don't get me wrong, some downforce from the GTC-200 is better than none, I'm just not convinced that the GTC-300 is too much. I've been trying to answer this question myself and was wondering if you had any extra insight.

^not at all...and yes i understand the physics.

Essentially i want a "mid-sized" wing that is still functional at a decent price and one that is specifically for the s2k and that can still be on the car when in normal driving.

GT200 hit all categories.

Yeah, it sounds like the GTC-200 should be perfect for you. I would assume the GTC-300 works better than the 200, but that assumption is unproven and makes it hard to justify the price. I would also not dare drive the GTC-300 daily, that's just asking for vandalism.
