Most of you guys have seen the pics of the bottom of my car, which is flat, but I'll post it for those who haven't. I just need to build a rear diffuser now.

I can't remember exactly on the weight, but it's not much. 14-15 lbs total I think.

How much... I'm not really into trying to sell the stuff anymore, there really wasn't enough of a demand. Send me a PM and I'll give you the details I think you could build them yourself.

Jared,

Thats very nice. I had missed it somehow previously but I am going to have to have a discussion with you about the aero for the SilverState car

EVOlutionary, your slotted and curved extensions also give me some ideas

Too much to think about and only 10 months to go

^^^^ For sure, I've got some ideas and at least a little experience with the concept now, we should talk with aeroweenie (Paul) as well, he's a Boeing aerodynamics engineer.

I have had mine at Virginia International Raceway and have the carbon front lip and rear aero diffuser along with the wicker bill. The Mitsubishi brake ducts really work and I would recommend them. Bottoming out is a function of how your car is sprung. Swift Spec R's work very well with Bilstein shocks. I use track pads and smooth track rotors and swap them out if I put the car on the street. Ate brake fluid works for me, but Motul is also a good one.

Actually I need to come and see him anyway. I need to freshen his tune up and make sure some of the issues he was/is having get resolved.
