Thanks. We had our cars parked next to eachother at BAM.
His is for autocross and mine is for track. I love the RS platform. Best light car there is. As long you work on the chassis and suspension development, this car can really shine and turbo brings a whole new ball game.

I did read a technical article from Mitsubishi motors. it gave very detail information of what these fins do. no wonder they come stock on Evolution MR.

fins suppose to cut down the density of the air flowing over the car so the wing can work better creating down force.
