My new 72" ducted fan bat wing thingy
To the untrained eye this may look like a 72" ducted fan bat wing RC airplane, to others it is my new APR Racing front splitter for my Roush 428R, the other parts are the inlets, fans and custom reducers for the brake coolers for the brake upgrade I will be doing on the car in the next few weeks.

Yes I did, not many calls for a splitter for a 428R, they have them to fit GT's Gt 500's already. If you look at the template that I made and sent them you can see how much of a lip there will be, about 2.5". It will require the front rods to support it, these splitters are capable of 300 lbs of down force.

I'm very interested to see it installed. Especially mounting points underneath and all. I'd like to add this to the CS in the future. I've had their website bookmarked for almost 3 years now but have yet to pull the trigger.

Here is a photo of the APR supplied hardware, as well as a photo of my Brembo's, the place I'm having them done at in TX http://www.tiradocustomcoatings.com/ was not happy with the fronts as they said the color on the Red Brembo was incorrect, I have other photos of the calipers and they look like wet paint, way better than I anticipated, they also said that they were able to get the stock rear brakes smoothed out like the fronts, I don't have any photos of them yet, can't Waite, I have been planning the brake upgrade for way too long, oh yea the Stillen J Hook rotors are out getting a coat of Black zink, that way when they wear in the J's will pop out on the rotors in black.

Here is a photo of my Stillen J-Hook rotors that I just got back from the coater, did them in black zink, when the pads break in they will rub the zinc off the brake surface leaving the black J's.




I'm now hesitant about talking bout driving the Track Pak deeper into the corner with the added down force
