The Wing Shop designs
racecar wings for motorsport and track day applications. Manufacturing
in carbon composite is carried out by manufacturing partners DJ Racecars
Ltd, ReVerie Ltd and, from mid-2007, GW Racing. |

The wing profiles, designed by SM Designs's Simon McBeath ( author of "Competition Car Aerodynamics" ) have either been evaluated in the MIRA full scale wind tunnel, and/or by computational fluid dynamics (CFD). Analysis of all this information has provided valuable technical support and development data. We also have university-based R & D projects enabling ongoing product improvement. And we are now using Fluent's Flowizard (TM) software for in-house mapping and development. Our designs have won championships in single seater and sports racing categories as well as finding applications on track day and even road cars. Also offered is a 'whole car' aerodynamics advisory service, known as SMART (SM AeRodynamics Techniques...). If you want to join the growing band of competitors who have found extra competitiveness by using this service, check out the Advice page. Get aerodynamic! Get SMART!! |

| The DJ Firehawk, with DJ Racecars-manufactured SM-Designs wings. DJ has been manufacturing a range of our design wings since 1999, and can provide set ups to suit single seaters (front and rear), sports racers, saloons and sports cars. DJ is currently tooling up to supply ultra-high downforce set ups to suit SCCA Autocross applications, developed by SM-Designs using FloWizard. |

Double
British Hillclimb champion Graeme Wight Junior chose Wing Shop wings for
his fantastic 3.0 V10 powered Predator. Now GW Racing is building the
Raptor hillclimb racecar and is an SM-Designs licensed wing manufacturer,
with wings becoming available from mid-2007.

| ReVerie Ltd now makes wings designed by SM-Designs. These designs are exclusive to ReVerie and have been manufactured primarily as retro-fit items for Lotus Elise/Exige models. Available in a range of spans (widths), with either a curved (shown above) or straight planform shape (which could be deployed on most car makes), the single element design features an efficiency-enhancing end plate that makes a substantial reduction to aerodynamic drag with minimal effect on downforce. A dual element design will be available soon. |

These
carbon composite aerofoils feature a market leading blend of strength,
rigidity, lightness, damage-tolerance and aerodynamic performance, and
as such offer excellent value for money. They also look great!
