i used the the small extra wing that you get to the rear wing on the XXX-CR in the front.
i just made a new brace with more angle.

It was about the size of Hupos and it gave lots of nice high speed stering :D

that looks like what hupo has done
we tried it on the xxxcr it worked a treat

Oh sorry i didt see that.
i had to have a closer look and it is the extra rear wing.

It's not a wing, it's an air dam...

a BJ4 has this standard :p
























oh! it's a shocktower?

Subtle it is not, but I always want that little bit more on stagger rib fronts. Perhaps this is the answer?

I have at Belgium GP, not sure if Dan did, can't feel any difference here to be honest.

yeah I know we've explained it to you, but didn't know if Dan did it the mod also.

we feel it pretty much everywhere to be honest, but it works best on worn astro like kampenhout. (that hair doens't move that much)

Mini Pins ;)

I did try it, also didn't feel much difference (any). I was always after that bit more steering in Belgium, car was super safe but not enough steering.
