^Those are similar to Moti's aside from the tweak to the height. Mine have some differences, and there are some other features I'm working into the upcoming designs.

Will probably offer a NASA <12" version (11-7/8") as well as a time attack/HPDE version that is completely optimized dimensionally.

You're definitely going to overpower a GV lip with just about any wing. The magic is when you have decent front aero too. A good endplate increases the efficiency of your wing, you can run less aoa to get the same downforce at a much lower cost in drag than with the poor excuses for end plates that ship with most wings

I'm looking to supercharge my original GTC-200 wing with some serious endplates, and I'm not limited by any series' rules.

What have you got for me?

APR owners are our main focus actually. Endplates for GTC-200, GT-250 and GTC-300 are coming very soon. I think you'll like what you see

Just curious whether there are enough COT guys who would also like to get in on the action.

I have the TougeRun front lip, similar to the Garage Vary. I have to run my wing at a negative AoA as well. I'm fine with that, right now the only goal for my aero is to remove lift, and it has totally succeeded at that. The car is super planted and stable at speed. When you consider the airflow hitting the wing off the hardtop is actually moving downwards -3 is still probably a positive AoA relative to incident airflow.

Super excite for splitter and more rear downforce.
