Default Barber Motorsports Park And Splitters

Does anyone know if a front splitter about 3 1/2 inches off the ground will clear the curbing at 7A, I have always jumped over this curb but I have not been back there since I added the aero. I also drive over the curbing at 13, but it seems very low and smooth.
Thanks in advance...

I don't remember either one of those areas to be very high or bumpy.
You'll have a lot of compression in 13, but the curbing there is very short - wide, but short.

Thanks, I really think I will be ok, I am going to leave it at 3 1/2 inches for now. Unless I hear otherwise..

What... you don't have a spare front clip in the trailer and have it all setup to mount with turn-locks

Dennis, here's a picture I found of 7A.



This looks like it might be 13:

Thanks Jody, 7A looks pretty flat in that picture, I have been over it several times pre aero and it never seemed like it was very high.

I don't think that is 13, it looks more like 12? but I am not for sure?

Thank you for finding those
