Seriously though, the money is not a problem, I've definitely got that covered. Time is the problem. I am in the middle of selling one company, runnning two others, fending off a viscous divorice attorney and somewhere in between trying to get this splitter finished. My RE's and chem heads are already working alot of OT on Uncle Sam's dime. I seriously appreciate your offer, but if we can just get the templates finished by next Tuesday I will still make the aforementioned 2 week goal.
And thanks again for all the unreal support and offers for testing. Watch you PM's next week.

Just so you know we are ACTUALLY working on this...as in yes this is real...yes this is going to happen...and there will be 3 variants.
This was the mock up for the V1 "shorty". It is a full replacement for the batwing w/splitter. Since I am in "limbo" at the moment until the templates are complete for the first 2 versions, we decided to mount this one and do some test/fun driving today.
The biggest difference I noticed was the calming effect it had on the front end. The auto seemed to turn better at higher speeds and generate greater forward bite going into/out of tight turns at higher speeds (able to add roughly 4-6mph through the turn). V1 was stable at up to 125mph (sustained) w/ bursts to 145mph....FYI...

Please note...on the finish product the trailing edge (by the front of the wheel well) does return all the way to the front of the wheel opening.
