Here is some more history on the Nissan 300 Z. It was driven by Steve Millan from New Zealand and won the GTU class at Lemans in 1990. In 1991 it gathered 7 pole positions and 5 wins. The link goes to a pic of Cunningham Racing Nissan 300 ZX. Note the rear wing and spoiler.

I took some cues from these photos as to body position. I have lowered the rear of the body so the wheel arch just covers the rubber on the tire. The body is extra wide to accomodate the tires this way. I have lowered the front to reduce the flatness of the nose. This may help my high speed lightness on the front end. I also added a transponder to the nose to increase the front weight just a bit.
Here is a new pic of the slammed body. Because of the high wheel arches, I have supported the nose with an extra, but very light, foam bumper on top of the standard foam bumper.
