Thanks for the input Rob! Your wing is a little over the top for me, but it confirms my beliefs that it must make a difference if executed in the right way.

Mark, during TouristenFahren, the long straight is closed for the return lane and toll booth, so there really is no actual straigh on the Nordschleife during TF...even though there are a few really fast parts, they all have some degree of bend(s) in them. Still managed 200 km/h last saturday as my digit speedo records max speed.
I was very pleased with that as I never got that fast on a non-straight before and it could very well have to do with the extra safety/stability feeling the 'wing' gave.
The Ring has a lot of long bends, so that would coincide with Rob's experience as well

Hope we see each other at Action again in 2,5 weeks Rob! Undertray and wing will not be there then though as the car will be in full drag-race mode by then

I promise, these will be the last:



A few brits spotted us on the parking and round-about just before the entrance and made this pic
