Those were a custom deal with machined balljoint studs and generic circle car links. I've been working with SPL testing these samples out before the production run that will be typical SPL quality/colors.

Same splitter hardware we use with the countersunk large washers :) What material did you use for your splitter?

Car looks great! Is this a CJ Wilson Racing project or a personal side-project?

This is a personal project. I worked at CJWR for a number of years including when I started this build. Lots of nights and weekends. The splitter is made from a AL honeycomb core with fiberglass skins. It's used in airplanes as flooring I think. I was messing around today seeing how strong it is.....

To post a update after trying out the new bits. It all works quite well and has settled the car down quite a bit. It puts power down on exit so well now I never even turned the traction control on. I was surprised how much it made a difference in the slower corners. Took around 3sec off the lap times. It does had a push in the slower sections now so i'll be making changes to cure that.

All the force pushing down on the rear created more squat than I was expecting. I need to make some adjustments to keep running at such a bumpy track.

So I installed shock travel sensors that i'll be using as a more basic purpose of measuring ride height and compression. I will be adding some rear ride height, putting the rear sway back on, and possibly playing with spring rate.
