    nice wing. Am going to look at a 355 Challenge at Universal Autosports in Long Island tomorrow and it appears to have a similar wing. These cars did not have wings during the series did they?

    Only 348CHs and 1995 355 CHs had titles, and there's no easy way to register any car lacking one.
    Keep in mind that registered/tagged doesn't necessarily mean street legal- very few States are totally lacking in smog and/or safety inspections, which no race car will pass. The presence of a roll cage, harnesses, etc., and lack of street-spec seat belts, exhaust system, horn, lights, etc. can pose problems.
    Also, driving any Challenge car on the street is a "hair shirt" experience. Trust me- I have some experience with both 348CH and 355CH on the street- not for the faint of heart, but if you're somewhat masochistic . . .

    The wing came as part of the Challenge update kit for the '99 season that pretty much everyone fitted to remain competitive in the series.

    The picture is of an OEM wing and mounting kit.

    Hi Tim,

    That was Route 1&9 in Elizabeth. There was an accident at an intersection ahead. It was the worst place to be in an F355 CH on a 95 degree day in July.
