Well this is a new way to get FWD cars to hook up at the track
Stumbled upon this in my recent Road & Track mag. Its apparently setting FWD records in Time Attack but damn it looks ridiculous.

Why couldn't they use a sprint car style front wing? it looks rediculous all the way up there

Wow, I bet its great for hauling plywood.
There has to be a better looking way of providing downforce on the front end. While that front wing may be effective, it looks terrible.

Full width wing at the height of a sprint car's would mean even worse forward vision, and very little air on it if you were in traffic.
