Accelerating is optional...........stopping is mandatory. Your car WILL stop one way or another.

Love the car! I think there's definitely room for improvement with the wing. At the same time, I think no wing would look good too. Maybe get with someone that can photoshop or maybe get with Carter Hickman, Jason Rushforth, or whomever you like and get a rendering done. You could take a look at other changes too such as a front spoiler like Bryce mentioned and maybe even wheel changes if you care to go that far. They are also designers and not just 3D modeling wizards so I bet they could have some good suggestions.

Default Great car!

I am digging it. Everyone is giving opinions, so here is mine. Taller wider wing as was previously posted or a NASCAR style adjustable spoiler.

It's an awesome car.I think a spoiler more like the nascar's ran in 80's would be better suited for this BA Falcon.

Killer car though. Cant wait to see some video of this thing.
Great eye Chris,, really started to look at it after your post, and yes it was mounted wrong. Not upside down, but backwards. I had my buddy machine the risiers and reposition the holes. I will take some pictures as soon as i get it mounted, but its going to be about 3 inches lower and set back a little bit.

Man this car is awesome. The wing throws it off a bit but only because of where it sits on the car and its shape. I think something a little flatter, set back a bit, lowered a bit, and powder coated black would work.

I do like that Flash, I also found this 65 Falcon, looks very similar, it doesn't look like it has a spoiler of any kind.
