rear wing on a budget

I was at the local dragstrip the other night and saw this nissan with a HUGE rear wing on the back, looked like one of the old Mopar wings, I swear this thing was 4 feet tall.

The funny thing is, it was made of plywood!!! LMOA!!!
You have no idea how ridiculous this thing looked, I couldn't believe what I was seeing. That's got to be quite an attention getter on the street

I think it weighed him down more than it helped, the car was running 19 second quarter mile times...lol

Just thought I'd share that...
Mike

Yeah, it was something like that, minus the 2"x4" cross braces.
