Now, here is something that is very interesting. This is back to my present setup. The body is dropped .60" in both the front and rear.
Could the downforce of a wing accomplish a .60" body drop in the rear? I would surely think so.
The problem I see here would be the lack of traction after the launch and before the wing could start working.
Although, the wing could generate enough downforce by the 330' mark with my present setup.
I may look into dropping the rear just 1/4" again and trying that out. I know I tried it before and got some tire rubbing, but that was because the car was doing some skating from side to side too (car got out of shape). I'll have to see again if it rubs with some nice and straight passes.
If I can start out with the car 1/4" lower from the start, the wing will have to do less work to drop the rear down .35".
