I am overseas working, and I am in the process of designing a road racing rear wing for a CRX. Since the car isn't with me, I can't take the dimensions. To finish my drawings, I need a few dimensions, can someone with a CRX get some of these please?

 

A: 40 1/4"
C: 4 1/4" from the trim gasket on the hatch

dont have 2 people for to measure B for ya though

 

Awesome thanks, can someone get the B dimension? My guess is 10", but I need to get a good measurement. Here is the easiest way to do it with 1 person:

1. Measure the height from the ground to the rear hatch deck
2. Measure the height fro mthe ground to the highest point on the roof
3. Subtract #1 from #2, and you have the difference in height

Thanks!

 

my rear deck is 39"
my roof is 50"

that makes the dimention you are looking for 11"

but there are a couple of problems with this measurement that make it slightly unreliable.

some factors include ride height of the front and rear of the car, this would change the angle of the entire car and make the dimentions different for different ride heights.

the level-ness of the ground would determine a more accurate result.

the roof is curved, there is no flat highest most point of the roof, therefore where is the correct location on the roof to measure from, going back to a previous point, different ride heights will make different points of the roof the highest point.

 

Looks like someone is building huge mega wing. Moaarahhart5agadkfh

 

ive been pondering this all day, and i think a good, maybe the best way to get the height measurement would be to pop the hatch and prop it up with something that will make it level with the ground.

then all you have to do is measure the gap!

The leading edge of the wing will be at least 5" above the roof to get it out of the turbulent air coming off the windshield/roof

As long as this measurement is +/- 1 inch, it's fine. The class I'm in (Honda Challenge) does not limit the height of the rear wing surprisingly, so I just need to have a baseline idea of where the roof line is, so I know about how high above it the wing is. Thanks!
