Recommended Posts

There has been a lot of discussions on this topic posted by LSX-438 with lot of people having doubts about this wing.

My car is running Willall's tune and a mid pipe. Until today I've run this car twice at Wakefield Park with times 1:03.79 in December and 1:03.81 in April, I've installed the Aeromotion wing (form The Tuners Group) last Friday and today I've run 1:02.83.

This is almost full second improvement and the only difference was the wing.

By the way Duncan run 1:02.44 which is incredibly fast for a road car. Well done.

So my recommendation for people which take they cars to the track, and want to go fast is get the tune and get the wing. This is the best bang for your dollars you can get.

Great work GGTTRR !

Almost a full second improvement is a great result, especially at a track like Wakefield with a lap time of just over 1 minute.

GGTTRR is running the static version of the Aeromotions R2 wing, the R2 Static. So that makes the laptime improvement of almost a second even more impressive.

The Aeromotions R2 Static Wing uses the same aerofoil as the R2 Dynamic Wing, but does not have the added benefit of dynamic wing angle control (though the R2 Static Wing can be upgraded to dynamic operation later with the dynamic upgrade kit).

By the way Duncan run 1:02.44 which is incredibly fast for a road car. Well done.

Well done to Duncan also ! Duncan also has an Aeromotions wing - the R2 Dynamic Wing.

Well said GGTTRR :)

We spend an enormous amount of time keeping right up to date with cutting edge high quality racing technology and being ahead of the curve. We always knew that once Australian cars started running Aeromotions wings that just like the overseas results the Australian lap times would show that the Aeromotions wings work very well indeed. So we're very pleased to see another Australian car posting such a great lap time improvement with one of our Aeromotions wings on it. And it's yet more confirmation that we got it right when we first discovered the Aeromotions wings many months ago and made the decision to bring the Aeromotions range to Australia.

As we've said many times in other threads about the Aeromotions wings ...

The key is the laptime, which speaks for itself and clearly demonstrates the effectiveness of the Aeromotions Dynamic Wings.

The stopwatch doesn't lie.

After you ran your 1:02.83 did you think to take the wing off and really see what the back to back benefit was?

Hi Stephen,

Aeromotions has already done extensive back to back testing and published data from the back to back testing at Thunderhill Raceway complete with Traqmate Data Acquisition data, a summary of the data and info about the car, driver and testing methodology, and a detailed turn by turn data analysis, which includes plots turn by turn of the lateral G-force, acceleration and braking G-force, velocity, and time difference.

As mentioned in the other thread with Duncan's results ...

If you want to see back to back testing data, as previously mentioned in this thread:

The Aeromotions Dynamic Wings are a proven quantity and there is already a lot of hard data to show how well they work ... and Aeromotions have already published detailed testing data.

As we wrote in a post earlier in this thread ...

"A number of teams running the Aeromotions Dynamic Wings have already publicly released info on their lap time improvements with the Aeromotions Dynamic Wing. Physics works exactly the same way in Australia as it does in the US, so the US results are just as relevant to Australia."

Aeromotions also did a back to back test at Thunderhill Raceway (screenshot from the test above). As it says on our website, lap times at the back to back test were ...

Without Aeromotions Wing: 2 minutes 10.1 seconds

With Aeromotions Static Wing: 2 minutes 9.2 seconds

With Aeromotions Dynamic Wing: 2 Minutes 8.4 seconds

With Aeromotions Dynamic Wing With Centre Fence: 2 minutes 7.7 seconds.

So at the Thunderhill test, adding an Aeromotions Static Wing shaved 0.9 second off the lap time without an Aeromotions Wing.

Lap times with the Aeromotions Dynamic Wing With Centre Fence were 1.5 seconds a lap faster than with the Aeromotions Static Wing, and 2.4 seconds faster than without an Aeromotions wing.

There is data from the back to back testing at Thunderhill Raceway complete with Traqmate Data Acquisition data, a summary of the data and info about the car, driver and testing methodology, and a detailed turn by turn data analysis, which includes plots turn by turn of the lateral G-force, acceleration and braking G-force, velocity, and time difference ...

The data from the Thunderhill test and the feedback from teams using the Aeromotions Dynamic Wings is here ...

Well done to Duncan also ! Duncan also has an Aeromotions wing - the R2 Dynamic Wing.

Duncan, is that a new class record at Wakefield ?

Not sure, it may be. We'll find out tomorrow perhaps.

Adam we have received notice on the records set yesterday, so yes you can chalk up another aeromotions success..

Duncan Forrest is continuing on in his winning way setting an Outright,

Type 4 and Class 4D record in his GTR R35 with a time of 62.440. It is

unfortunate that the record books will only mention Duncan as breaking the

Outright Record but it should not go without saying that Marek Tomaszewzki

also broke the previous Outright Record record with a sub 63 time of 62.835.

The old record was 63.080. It's too bad that Duncan was around on the day.

Congratulations Duncan and commiserations Marek

Too bad i was around on the day apparently! Seriously though i actually feel like an arse, Marek broke the record books too. In fact on the day Marek was in front for a while so he was the outright, type and class record holder for about an hour or two.

I can't believe the hunt is on for 1:01's now

Marek has already run two times prior (similar days and very similar times) there is simply no need for more testing, we know the wing works the results speak for themselves. i dont think marek is going back to the stocker wing somehow.

    • From there, as the manual says....assembly is the reverse of disassembly, no tricks worth mentioning Much better (for me)
    • In my case, the standard wheel I had was in good condition but the buttons had more wear, so I swapped them across from the original wheel from the car. The plastic rear cover is held on by 4 tabs, and once the wiring is removed you can get access to 2 screws on each side the hold the buttons in From there I just swapped the wiring over. What was interesting is the standard style wheel is 2.0kg but the carbon fibre one is 50% heavier at 2.9kg. It even has a weight inside the wheel at the top to make up for some sort of imbalance in the design. weird
    • Once the airbag is off, to remove the steering wheel.... Undo the 2 plugs into the clock spring, and the horn connector from it's clip. Hit the 19mm nut with a rattle gun (preferably) or if you don't' have one, you probably want an assistant to hold the wheel in place while you use a breaker bar to undo the nut Then, screw the nut back on 3 turns, and pull the wheel sharply towards you. If that doesn't work hit it medium force with a rubber mallet on either side, or possible behind if you can get there. If that all fails (it shouldn't!) you might need a steering wheel puller
    • So, to next task....the carbon fibre steering wheel was either an expensive factory option or a chinesium special. Either way, I don't like either the flat bottom or thick ring style, so it had to go So...to remove the steering wheel.... First, disconnect battery negative and stomp on the brake pedal for a few seconds. Then, remove the small circular covers on each side of the wheel's rear surround to uncover the airbag clips. You need to push something like a flat bladed screw driver through, to push the steel clip inwards and pull the side of the airbag forward. Once you've done the easy side, same on the centre console side. You can see the tab you are shooting for circled in red Then, disconnect the horn spade connector and for the yellow airbag plug you need to get something small under the black locking tab to pop it out, then the connector releases......airbag is off
