I guess here comes a stupid question....

How can a kit like that help your times in a race?

It's heavier, more surface area means more drag, and not to mention, the money can be spent elsewhere actually getting you faster.

What's the point?
Yeah, doesn't really make sense.

You can fit bigger tires under there, and the aerodynamics provide differing levels of down force.

And CF gives you an easy 50hp boost, Spoon however gives you 75hp.

The entire kit is Dry CF and very light. I dont think weight would be an issue at all. More grip from the wider tires plus the added downforce = faster corner entry and exit speeds.

It would probably help if the OP gave more info on the tracks he plans on running. If they are tight technical tracks where downforce doesn't play a big role than any kit the OP likes will be good, but if the tracks are high speed courses than the benefits from the ASM would make that one the better choice.

If the ASM kit is really an option than the OP can also afford to go and buy a daily driver so he doesn't have to chance destroying his investment

Sweet.. Thanks for everyone's opinion... I think I might be going limited class,
Street class only allows hood, trunk and small stuff like that.. Limited allows Wide body.

We will see!! But I think SPOON FTW!!
