Leadfinger Racing ‘MaxSpec-20’ Vortex Touring Car Wing

Best known for their offroad bodies, US body shell producer Leadfinger Racing has announced the release of the all-new ‘MaxSpec-20’ High-Downforce Compliance Wing engineered specifically for the Avalon Vortex 1:10 Touring Car body.  They developed the wing to unlock the full performance potential of the Avalon Vortex body without risking a tech failure.  Instead of forcing racers to trim away performance, the MaxSpec-20 utilises a custom-engineered lowered pocket geometry which drops the baseline mounting plane 6mm lower on the body’s pedestals, neutralising the tilt and pulling the trailing edge safely below the roofline.  Extended Pocket Reach mean the mounting channels are lengthened to 20mm–22mm, cleanly clearing internal body reinforcement ribs for a flush, rigid fit.  Maximum allowable downforce is achieved by lowering the baseline deck height, racers can run a true ’20mm tall chord profile’ while remaining 100% compliant with roofline height restrictions.  100% ROAR/ IFMAR compliant, the ‘MaxSpec-20’ comes as set of two wings.
