    Hi NICO R

    Do you have any more pictures of one ?

    Does this wing have a name/designation ?

    Any known sources of one one be it original or a copy ?



    thanks.

    I am also after a source for an original 360 Challenge rear wing. Any leads would be appreciated!

    The first season (or two?), the 360C did not have a wing. After the N-GT/GT was introduced, several owners installed the front splitter and rear wings, but these were essentially to add aero so that the cars would be improved in the GrandAm and SCCA series.

    I cannot recall if the 360C was ever offered with a wing in the Challenge series, but it might have been. My memory is admittedly hazy...

    If I remember correctly the 355 challenge factory wings were none adjustable.
    The 360 GT or LM cars were fully adjustable. 36O challenge cars never raced with any body kits. Kits were installed after the challenge series was done with 360 and 430 took over.

    Thanks for the reply. The car I purchased had the following aero kit fitted but am not entirely sure of the source. Unfortunately I had an off at the track which broke the wing off at the engine lid fixing points. Looking at replacement if I can't get it fixed. BTW the car is in Australia. Can anyone identify the kit?

    Cheers

    It may be an optical illusion, but pictures 8 and 10 seem to show a curved wing.

    355C wings are fixed, IIRC.

    The N-GT/GT wings are adjustable. See the photos I linked to at the Ferraris-Online.com site. They aren't infinitely adjustable.

    NOT the Michelotto N-GT or factory GT kit. For either the splitter or the wing. Sorry, but I don't recognize who produced it.

    The 355's did have a slight pitch adjustment to them.
    Many added a couple inch extension to get them in the air with more adjustment

    The Novitec seems very close to the race wing, perhaps the mounts could be a little higher and the end plates a little different, but clearly the closest thing so far.

    The only problem now, is anything from Novi is eye wateringly expensive.

    I'm making parts for my Challenge, going to a 430 Challenge rear wing and some other aero parts, I've also made some spare carbon rear support brace for Challenge Stradale & Challenge unobtainium until now. Will probably make a full carbon rear same shape as the CS with the higher lip rather than the Challenge, that is the same as a standard 360. It's good that I have both cars to play with.
