Default 1/10th buggy rear wing

Hi all, today i decided to finally vaccum form my rear wing mould to see what it would actually look like on my buggies. Well anyway when i got home and cut it out did i actually realise how big it is compared to others. It is just plain huge, here are the dimensions: 2 inches high by 3.5 inches long by 6.5 inches long. I will be putting a photo of it later on compared to a 6 inch jconcepts wing.

Here are a couple of photo's of the wing. Sorry for the bad quality as i had to use my bro's phone.

By the way the clear one is the custom made wing and the yellow one is a 6 inch jconcepts one.

you could of cut the front bit off to meet the same width as the original, then trimmed the height down.

make them abit smaller and make some more to experiment with different downforces. It's worth the testing, trust me

Thanks for the advice, i will have to have a bit of an experiment to see which is truly the best. But the best part is, i can make as many as i want at school as long as i pay 5 pounds at the beginning of each year, to pay for all of the material. So maybe i could be in for starting up my own little buisness for selling stuff like that. First wings, then bodyshells, and then i shall conquere the world.

Let me know when your selling them, cos I want at least two for my 501X, the originals split too easily.
