I believe that wing was Styrofoam covered in fiberglass. He got upside down once and it came apart like crazy. Looked like it was snowing in turn 3. The WoO mad him start running a regular wing on it.

Ha, good ol Tom. He had some unique ideas. That car could be fast at times. But he had a hard time getting it setup at other times. My dad knew him well. Tom's company built some of the equipment at the food plant my dad owned.

Strange looking thing but looks like it worked!

Pity none of the teams do experimental stuff like this any more :(
