Frankly I don't see ne benefit when doing such a mod unless u surpass the limits of the car. If not why bother. I rahter spend that money on professional instructors and test the car as is. So u got a cup wing it should make u faster but it's abit disconcerting when a great driver in a 6gt3 flies by you as u were on reverse. Just my opinion. Mike
I checked my ego at the door long time ago. It's not about who is faster or who has the larger bling. This is just a thought exercise to see what if. Cup or RSR wings were designed for very different cars from street 3 and RS. I want to see the potential benefit/harm from fitting one of these wing on a heavier street car. I can imagine the extra wear on the rear tires and drag on straight speed but will it be off set by better turn in/out?

+1 Very interesting indeed. This is almost like climbing into a time machine. Lew was right. Mikymu should have spent the money on professional coaching. He might be racing with the big boys by now.
I wonder which one of these Cups in the photos is mine?

I have to ask what the difference would be between the .2RS wing with the cup endplates vs. a cup wing are in regards to performance? I like the look of the .2RS since it's curved vs. the flat shelf of the cup. or is the swap more an aesthetic reasoning.

I used the cup car end plates on the wing because they increase the effectiveness of the wing tremendously (they are larger in surface area than RS end plates and have most of the area under the wing
