durable 1/10th buggy wings!
Tired of getting run over by short course trucks at practice and ruining your delicate lexan buggy wings? The SWorkz S104 rear wing is the answer for a great durable practice wing for your 1/10th scale buggy. $8.25 each from amain.com, comes with plastic wing washers. Shown on the C4.2 in white with the wickerbill cut down and no trimming on the durango 410. white, black, orange, yellow choice of color. They are a sort of soft flexible plastic.
I do not post often, but i think these are pretty sweet and something other buggy guys might be looking for.

your prob right. but i think i want to try one of these for the racedays where im mixed with the 4wd sc's. then put on regular wing when we have our own class

yep, it's a full wickerbill; could be cut down really shallow. Again, nice for practice. agreed, a angle and "bill" like the jconcepts wings would be sweet.

I have to ask. Would a more durable wing end up passing more load onto the shock towers and wing mounts?
When the crash comes, something has to take the blow. And no matter how skilled you are as a driver, if you share the track, the crash is going to come.
For me, I refuse to paint a wing, clear is fine. I can cut one out in a couple of minutes and be ready to roll. I will settle for cheap enough to just replace it.

The more rigid the wing, the greater amount of energy is transferred over the components that are directly linked to it. With Lexan wings, when you crash, they absorb energy and cushion the impact considerably. Hence why it's pretty much a throw away piece and very few paint them. I have my days where I can't catch a break and I'm plowed into or forced to take evasive action to avoid destroying 2 or more vehicles and the wings take a beating. Much cheaper and easier to replace a $6 wing than a $20 wing mounts or a $40 shock tower.

The LMR and RudeBits wings are lex an but thicker than most, they will bend but last much longer than normal wings.
