I was trying to find the link that showed the drawings for the Sprint Car Wings and their dimensions.

I would like to know if the 6 in x 6 in center sections include the 1/2 inch wicker at the back side of the panel or is the 1/2 inch wicker at the back in addition to the 6 inches.

On the Custom Works Wing the center panel is 6 x 6 plus a 1/2 wicker at the back but the rules dont reflect this.

Thank you - Dave Wasik :D davetech racing

The CW wing I have measured 6"x6" without the lip at the back. When I built my new one, per the rules I read on here, you were also allowed a 0.25" lip at the front as well, and I believe that is also not included in the 6"x6" measurement, but a drawing would clarify it.

The 6x6 wing drawing is nearly ready.

Drawing will be posted later today but to clarify the question. The Center Section can measure up to 6x6 plus you are allowed an additional 1/2" rear spoiler or wicker. Basically the wing can not have a total chord length of more than 6.5" from leading edge to trailing edge.

i dont know if this would make a difference or not but is there a rule stating how far back or forward the wing can be on the car?

Thank's Rob,
I wanted to be sure of that length before I made up some Wings. I will include the 1/4 Leading edge or "turn down" with the 6 inch length .:thumbsup:

This will insure the 6 inch chord length before the 1/2 inch wicker at the rear of the center section.:greenflag:

Thank's again for the clarification - Dangerous Dave :D davetech racing
