Funny thing is the "salt flats" was just joking about, but now, hmmmm. Got bored again, and framed up one of the two batteries ( 3000 watts +) and the batt isolator now has a home too.

A rear wing is not just for downforce, it can also reduce wind resistance/drag.

Or just make every friggin' yahoo wanna street race ya. I swear since I put this on, the yahoo's have come outta the friggin' woodwork. :) Makes me want to roll with a "Hype" theme. The reverse of making a sleeper. I might cut some vinyl graphics for the side window saying "Max Boost", or "Horsepower Monster". That should put the icing on the cake for people wanting to rip up their tires next to me. Then again, the CHP might not find the humor and start pulling me over. Ixnay that idea and continuing on with my "Race At The Track, Cruise The Streets" vinyl. I swear it has saved me more than once.

Thx, but I already have the other saying on my rear window. I have had more than one cop come speeding up and ride my tail (read decal) then pass on by. For the record I have always been behaving when this happens. I'm fearful of the day I goof up and get pulled over, then have the officer think I'm being smart.

but just imagine what anyone would be called if they tried to copy that front wing on a street car.

They laughed at Chris the first time he showed up at the track, most of them were crying from the ass whoopin' when he left!
