I do not know if they did any wind testing but professional racing teams will not make modifications knowingly that hurt performance. Checkout this thread that has a video of it racing with other cars. It placed 5th in qualifying against some really good cars.

Also what is the general reason why GT racing cars all have wider bodies? To look cool? Think Wide Think Wheels

Look @ all those wide bodies, look @ all those big wings, fking whole pack of rice burners.

I searched around and found the Panspeeds... Thanks for the suggestion. I think they will look perfect, and they aren't too expensive. Now I have to find a US supplier. I'll try japanparts, first.

it's still just the usual attempted fashion statement BS; the right approach, just entirely the wrong ricearoni BS look
these foofoo wannabes need to quit trying to reinvent the aero bodywork wheel to the ad nauseum level of cosmetic ridiculousness, Speedsource seems to be the only company that gets it

475+ HP 20B goodness to boot

Might as well show the latest Speedsource car which I agree is the best looking car.
Was the Pettit Racing 20b RX8 a Speedsource body?
