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 Last edited by PaulRotheram; 19-07-2007 at 09:58 PM. |

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.

I was having a go wiht it last night at the TRCC and on the slippy it was just unbeleivable how much grip i was getting, the back end wasn't kicking out, unless i forced it to, but it just had loads of downforce.

Surprisingly i wasn't that was just me and my awsome talent. Was a bit disappointed how the bottom of the shocker fell off towards the end as i was nearly a whole lap ahead from the person in second place. But i can't complain, i still finished 4th which i think is fairly good as i didn't even finish the race.

Ahh but if you had checked the qualifing, my average lap was at 22 seconds and my best laps were in the 20 seconds. Just a question, who was it who got TQ by at least 5 seconds. That's right it was me. I only got 28 seconds average lap because it put one of my laps down for 1 min 35 seconds. I wouldn't acutually call that a lap as i was just brinning it around to tape it off of the track to be repared.

By the way Josh you left your wing down at the club on saturaday, you know that old, small and bent wing that was no use to anybody. Also after you left i stayed another good five hours after that and once i had finished and was about to finally come home at 4:00am in the morning and had a few very large cracks in the wing. This is my first step into changing the design to make it a bit stronger. I am currently super glueing it up now and i am possible going to paint it a nice bright yellow.

Meh, i have 2 spares see i would never be allowed to stay that long, id be living there before my parents would say no (but i would live there )
I think i will need a 'slightly' bigger wing on my car now, i built a B4 factory team in a day which im quite proud of, even if its my second B4, so i now just need legend to set it up for me coz my set ups never work. So how much are you going to be selling these wings for then? coz i need one! |

You will have to wait until i get some more in stock, and i have refined the design a little more to make it a bit stronger. But the Realease date will be somewhere around October / November hopefully if all goes to plan.

I cant survive on that track with a standard wing until then
I might have to start making my own as well, bit of friendly competition, not that there is non already P.S. new shell on Wednesday just got given about 30 cans of paint from Guisborough so its fairly interesting (i didnt use all the cans though )
