Joe Van Overbeek makes one, but i dont think its really needed on a 9 sec car.

It may not be needed for a nine second car but if you are looking for an aftermarket drag wing that will look great and you have the money, get one of the Joe Van Overbeek wings. Why not?

I saw one from Rick Jones/Quartermaster on thier website. It looked nice, but I havn't actually seen one. It was aluminum.

Definitely Joe Van O. That's if he is still alive, the wait for his wing has been so long!

If you're not going over 165, I don't think it's really needed. Once your past that point, it's probably not a bad idea to put on the car.

The joe van O one, probably the only one I would even consider to be honest. I ahve seen the alum ones, it looks like an erector set gone bad. Very IMO

Thumbs up

Well to tell you the truth we have not run the car this year yet. We have done some motor work and lightened her up a little since last year. Last year the car ran 10.2-10.4. We should be ready for a nitrous system maybe 2 stage 150-200 I don't know. I think then we may need a wing. Thanks for the tips.
