Description

The TYPE 17 GT Wing is a professional-grade aerodynamic component born from proven race success—specifically refined from its competition debut at Tsukuba Circuit. It serves as a high-downforce evolution of the TYPE 13, distinguished by an integrated multi-element flap design that significantly amplifies downforce output. Positioned within VOLTEX’s performance hierarchy, it offers a potent balance suited for drivers who require more aggressive downforce than the TYPE 13 or TYPE 11 in low-to-mid speed applications, making it an ideal choice for technical circuits and time attack where cornering stability and traction are paramount.

Product Highlights

🏆 Race-Validated Performance Heritage
Directly developed and refined from competition use at circuits like Tsukuba, ensuring real-world performance and reliability under extreme conditions.

🔄 High-Downforce Evolution of TYPE 13
Builds upon the efficient profile of the TYPE 13 with an added integrated flap, generating substantially greater downforce for enhanced cornering grip and acceleration stability.

📊 Optimized for Low-to-Mid Speed Circuits
The airfoil and flap configuration are tuned to excel on technical tracks where maximizing downforce in slower corners and under acceleration is critical for lap times.

🎯 Strategic Placement in VOLTEX Lineup
Occupies a precise niche in the performance spectrum: more downforce than the TYPE 13 and TYPE 11, but tailored for different speed ranges than the TYPE 15.

Specifications

• Overall Width: 1,800mm – 2,000mm

• Mounting Type: Rigid Mount / Professional Installation

• Category: Professional Time Attack / High-Downforce Circuit GT Wing

• Performance Position: TYPE 13 < TYPE 11 < TYPE 17 < TYPE 15 (in downforce output for given speed range)

Remarks

⚠️ For Fully Prepped Race Vehicles Only
Generates significant aerodynamic load. Suitable only for vehicles with full roll cage, race suspension, high-load tires, and matched front aerodynamics (splitter/canards).

🔧 Professional Setup is Mandatory
Installation and angle optimization should be performed by experienced technicians. Data logging is recommended to verify balance and performance.

✅ Ideal for Technical & Twistier Circuits
Specifically recommended for time attack courses and circuits where top speed is secondary to cornering speed, braking stability, and mid-corner grip.
