Track drivers need your opinion.
I found this removable rear wing by RENNtech. Wondering what opinion you might have. Does the C63 sedan need more downforce at the track?
I like the fact that its removable.

It def. looks way cool. But at 4k its quite expensive piece considering I only do maybe 8 track days a year.
Are there less expensive options for a removable wing out there.
Appreciate your feedback, Thanks'.

Thats a very nice piece but there are many other options that will accomplish better track times. Focus on the suspension(KW adjustable), wheels(light weight) and tires(Toyo R888), rotors(lighter 2 piece), and other weight reductions. The rear does not need additional down force with some additional traction in the rear. The car is extremely nose heavy and you need to steer with the rear end at times.

I would spend the $$ on sticky tires. Unless you are running Daytona's nascar configuration. On a track like Palm Beach you would have much more fun braking later, turning faster and being able to use all of our power sooner exiting every turn. vs the little bit of downforce you'd get with a wing.
My old track car seemed like a different car with street vs. track tires.

Thanks for the replies. The Dunlop tires I have now are super and there performance on the track with the corrected air pressure for the track are well beyond my current driving ability .... Lol
All your advise appreciated.
I guess I've been bitten by the mod bug... the wing looks really cool.
