Reinventing the OneLapCamaro... - Lateral-g Forums

The trunk got a bit of a tweak on the inside for support:

The wing itself is very lightweight – it’s all race layup carbon fiber and on it’s own weighs around 12 pounds. It provides anywhere from 100 to 800 pounds of potential downforce depending on the AoA and speed.

We'll do more if it's needed but now the inner and outer trunk skins are working together and the taillight panel will take the brunt of the load. It will be easy enough to tie it in to the bumper mounts if need be...

That's about where we are now... there are probably some more pictures coming soon - the Autorad support is now in place - but we're in a bit of a holding pattern for a week or so waiting on parts.

I'll keep you posted...

I like the hood. I have the same vision for my hood one day. That is well executed. The new spoiler looks cool too. The new look of the car is going to be much more aggressive.

James, can you share more about the 7" LED Headlights and other lights you mentioned? Maybe a link?

Headlights are a particular concern of mine that I have not addressed yet. I had not seen an LED yet.

I take it this is it?

Really like what you have done! In the process of getting stuff together for a 68 Camaro project and a wing was at the top of my list along with some areo mods. That wing is very tricky.

Looking forward to future updates.

Everything is looking awesome!!! I think that all of these modern body mods on a '60s muscle car look great. Even more so when they serve a purpose. Can't wait to see more.
