HardbarUSA.com sells a wing, even though it's not listed on his site.
It's for pros and it's about $5k.
Hopefully he'll chime in.

Make that $2k not 5
He must have recovered the developement cost.
BTW it was engineered by an aerodynamics engineer he knows.

I am out and can’t see the post much, but it is $2k, not $5k.
Please revise if you can.
Thanks,
Gary

Kerry Hitt's work is excellent and he is a pleasure to work with to top it off.

Subject: Wing pics
These pics are not very good, this was a early one, and it is shown without the end plates which are included. The wing has had 3 podium finishes in World Challenge. The wing is carbon fiber-epoxy with CNC machined mounts. This wing has a max lift coefficient (CL) of 2.2 and the other wing suggested on the forum can only do 1.6). With a 2.2 CL you can get about 500 pounds of downforce at only 120, but most people run it and 4 degrees or so. With that kind of downforce, you MUST mount it to the frame, not the deck lid. The mounting system, goes into the frame with 3 weld bungs on each side. The wing is 72in x 12 in but the width can be whatever you want up to 80 inches. The supplied curves are for a 72x12. The entire system is $2500 complete, mounts and everything including the weld bungs, and all fasteners.
Thanks,
Gary Hoffman
