Need info on adding a rear wing to 914
My friend wants to add a rear wing to his 914-3.6 race car. I searched the website but could not find any discussion. I know there are a bunch with wings. I'd appreciate any help locating a source for a good set-up. Thanks

Pretty much any aftermarket tuning place will have plenty of wings to choose from.
Question becomes does it actually do anything?? For no holds barred race proven spoiler designs try any of these guys.. to name a few. http://www.crawfordcomposites.com http://www.pennon.com http://www.smartracingproducts.com/ http://www.theracersgroup.com/ For mounting well your on your own there. Either a universal fit mount Or fabricate something yourselves. |

rear wing
If your running a stock ( suspension ) car, be very careful of the downforce a big wing can impose, especially on any high speed tracks.
With a compound ( old CanAm type ) wing, we managed to break our rear suspension at willow springs - as in broken ! Be careful - and good luck ... Ed
