Homemade Whaletail

[drmatera]

great craftsmanship. It may not produce as much downforce as a stock tail but it looks very aerodynamic.... beautiful

I started at the top a little nervous and then I realized that you know what the hell you were doing.

Great job and great looking car.

Looks very nice. What color is the car? Looks like a Polar silver, I love it.

Well here we've got some speed limits here, but up to 200km/h, it feels like before. That's what I exspected anyway, because I've done some rough calculations to get approximately same down force

Unfortunately I forgot to weight, but I am sure, it's much below the stock wing

I will do it next winter break

Under the tail you'll find this

Polar silver is almost right. That's what I wanted before, but I felt, it is a bit anemic. So I choosed a color a bit different. You can find it at VW and some other brands. It's called Nebioblau (L5Y)

Oh, don't get me started on bike builds......

What's the red box zip tied to the rear subframe??

[Strygaldwir]

It is most humbling to see the set of skill of folks on the board.

Well done!
