if you need it, an 1/8" wicker at the back can help, especially at more than 9deg angle. You can't go much more than that (sans wicker) without getting serious stall (more drag than downforce).

Did you put a splitter on......if not, you won't need much wing.

yup... the 4" one. Thats what I'm going to check up on this weekend.The rad's going to get layed down and ducted through the hood as well.

I'm going to try the wing without the wicker first and go from there.

This is the same car you originally towed to HPDE's on a U-Haul trailer, right?

Just look at you now!

Keep us posted on how it works. As I understand it, you will eliminate the squirreliness from the rearend under heavy braking as well as be more planted up the esses.
