Hey guys, maybe you can help me out here. I am scratch building some sprint car models and decided to scratch build the wings being the kit pieces are molds from 20+ years ago and aren't 100% scaled right. Anyways, I have researched this quite a bit and found the WOO rule book http://woosprint.com/images/stories/MainImages/PDF/2014_WoO_Sprint_Rulebook.pdf but everything I scale out doesn't look right most particularly the leading edge of the wings. If anybody has a cross section pictures or measurements or anything of the like of the center foils of both the front and the top wing that would be super appreciated.

The leading edge profile is not set in stone. Some are thicker and some thinner. Some have different ideas on slower tracks and faster tracks and make some wings different. I Think this was maybe more true in past than today, but I think some are still built different.

If you go to knoxvilles website and look at the rules, and scroll through to the 360 wing rules. They have some sketches of the center foil for the front and top wings. They are dished so not sure if thats what you want but thought I would throw it out there.

Thank you. I already found images like those unfortunately. Basically the rules state from both the woo and ASCS, the foil can be xyz thickness max, but doesn't give any idea on what it really is on the leading edge vs the center etc.
