Did you guys bolt that splitter to the chassis under the car, like at the radiator support and engine brace? I also thought the splitter looked a little pointed up. With the high pressure area above it pressing down it shouldn't really create lift, but it would be better flat or raked down. What's the construction of the splitter?
It is foam cored carbon/kevlar construction from S&S Fabrication in the Bakersfield area - they have them laid up by some parts fabricator in the military industry. They install hard points in the foam to bolt through so you aren't just sandwiching to a foam core! They are also the ones who built the rear wing for us.
The front splitter is pointed at an upward slope of 1* on the sides and is flat in the middle from the leading edge. I didn't have time to cut apart and reglass the APR front to make it fit level, nor did I have the materials to make the spacers needed to flatten it either. I am hoping that there will not be any "lift" from that amount, but we will SOON find out........er,uh, I mean... Yang will soon find out
!Wish us luck,
I don't think that we will have anything for JC's suby or even Nil's, but I bet we meet a lot of cool folks and have a great time doing it!!

As Bryan stated, we ran the front support rods down from the stock bumper beam (hope the nutserts hold) and we have downlegs from the framerails in the rear. It is also sandwiched to the APR front (I know, not much support there).

well it looks like the Lee Myles crew did have a little something for JC and Nils. Yang placed the the lee myles car on the podium with with a very competative time for a stock block, small turbo, daily driven car.
