You're telling me!You need a tire sponsor !
YesAre you still running 295/35/18 squared Yokohama A052s ?
That’s one nice looking 69I was signed up for UMI Autocross Challenge 2021, and decided if I wanted a shot at winning an invite to KOTM, I'd need the fiberglass parts and the spoiler mounted. I didn't have time to get blocked smooth and painted, so I shot them with black epoxy primer and installed them unfinished for the rest of the summer.
Fresh 295/35/18 squared Yokohama A052s, as well as taking 40lbs off the front, 18.5lbs off the back, and adding the spoiler did the trick, as I won the invite by 0.059 second over 2 days.

Curious, when you're sitting still, can you feel air coming out the hood holes?
Do you think the air flows out when you're driving or do you think it creates vacuum and air goes in?
Maybe put a piece of tape or string to see the flow?
The difference in front end stability at 130-140mph is staggering. It used to get really unstable from all the air pressure under the hood trying to lift the front of the car. Now it feels planted and very stable.
I plan to add a 6" (per the SCCA rules) splitter to the bottom of the chin spoiler, and if I do more big track roadcourse stuff, I'll be adding an under-tray from the bumper back to the front crossmember as well.Interesting.
What about putting a pan under the engine? Enclosing the bottom?
