Maybe, but is that speedo MPH or a timing device. If it is the speedo I can hit 143 in my C2 but I have always discounted it and after driving my new car, seat of the pants and the AIM solo makes me think it reads about 5-7 mph high. Bill V's charts show the G50/05 as having a 135 top speed in 4th. Add tailwinds and you could get there I guess. I haven't done pocono in years once it became a mess. I plan to go back this year I hear they improved it a lot. We will also be driving full infield I believe for 2 out of the three days. Might consider it?

Hal,

Looks like a hell of a fun track. Turn 1 must be a huge pucker factor especially with a car feeling light up front.

If your suspension is to your liking than I found the wing to be a nice improvement at those speeds. The Biwing would be an improvement over the RSA but might be a bit overkill.

I have the RS splitters and no rear wing. I was unable to run my car at BIR last year (one of the pics is from BIR) due to an oil leak (fixed and ready for 2016). I do like the look and quality but can't speak to the function yet. My car is in storage but if you are local (Minneapolis / St Paul) and haven't made a decision by spring, I am happy to show you my car.

Meatball911, your car looks great. I'm not sure that I'll make it to BIR this Spring but perhaps we can meet somewhere in Twin Cities. I'll try to make it up to BIR for the Club Race in July. I'll PM you in April when the weather starts to improve.

I'm about to order a set of front splitters. Is the one that FVD sells the same as Cult Werks ? Is one better than the other (looks/fitment)?

The cultwerk price also includes VAT (19%), which is obviously removed for US sales. The shipping quote I got for the RS bumper section was cheap.
