That one looks like an air catcher with it boxed in like that. I'd think it would work at very low speeds and cause huge drag at higher speeds.

found out where it may be from

Gee that didn't take long
looks like a APR GT-II wing with custom end caps and a gurney flap.

http://www.aprperformance.com/index....d=40&Itemid=44

I agree on the APR call. You could call Rick at Ciro Design: 949-453-8292. He's one of their distributors and he can arrange for custom endplates and uprights if you'd like.

Mike

the duke probably fab'd it himself. others more knowledgeable will chime in, i'm sure (mitch?)
People aren't enthusiastic at all

I remember that car from last year Top Gun, three regions of Montana compete for a travelling trophy over a two day event. He was matching times with the FM class, and even beat them on the 2nd day.
