I still have the wing on my car... next time I go to the track I'll make a few runs with it on and a few with it off.

I noticed on those vids of yours it was still on. It would be great if you could test it out by taking it off for a few runs and see the difference.

Man I was planning on running mine at RockFalls this weekend but I guess I might have to run it with you instead. Id like to finally see a decent Evo running some quick times. We finally got our DSM to run a 10... now I need to beat the DSM time with the Evo

I will do so for sure. I still havent gotten my car back from Adam at Devo but hopefully soon. I need to finally make at least one clean pass with the stupid car. On our DSM we finally hit a 10 with the FP3052 so I am confident there will be much faster passes with the Evo. I would love to see your car and maybe listen to some advice about my crap driving Send me a PM before you go and Ill try to make it over there.

if u can still get the same traction. wouldn't it be less load/force for the car making it faster overall? Simply put.
