RE-Winger


RE-Wing are based in the south of Japan so it's a rare opportunity to see this car.



It really is a formiddable machine. Huge canards up front and an even more massive wing on the rear somehow end up with balance.



The air intake is interesting setup. Dual pipes create confusion surrounding intake and charged air. But there's a T78 in there somewhere.



285 section rear tyres are massive, the metal body has been massaged here.



Front fenders are wider normal looking fenders. Prodrive GC-10G wheels look great.



While not a great shot, the air dam underneath helps reduce drag and create some more downforce to balance that wing.



which, in itself requires a bit of restraint. This car contains a lot of one off fabricated parts from cheaper materials. It proves you don't really need that super aero to be fast. Alternative solutions are out there.
