Just done it on my B44, took 5 mins, just take the wing mounts off, line up with the lower bolt hole, stanley knife off the desired amount and pop a longer bolt through and job done!
With the wing mounts resting on the shock tower brace it feels fairly sturdy but I may do what Sleigh has done and put some small 4-40 nuts in the wing mounts. I am going to fit a brace between the two wing mounts, a bit of a chassis post from my AE L4 12th car and a couple of bolts. I'll post a pic up once finished, I'll race it next Wednesday and report back |
Here we are guys, pics as promised: As per my other post, longer bolts through shock tower brace, cut down the wing mounts and made a brace from 12th chassis spacer and a couple of blue washers.

Well gave it a run last night, didnt break and car seemed to jump well and seemed balanced in the air.
The jumps were not massive so probably not a fair test but so far so good....... |
As said before the wing modification was done after the Worlds warmup because of the big jumps and the random gusts of wind at finland.
Excuse the grubby car. http://www.oople.com/forums/picture....pictureid=4566 http://www.oople.com/forums/picture....pictureid=4567 |

What advantages does lowering the rear wing have?
Cheers |
I don't think that this modification would really change the handling of the car.
If it would do so, then i think the World Campion 2011 would also use the wing mounted low- but Cav didn't. http://s1.directupload.net/images/111204/awqhhf58.jpg Probably it's just a personal thing and more about the looks... |
