Is there a pressure point, with an autoclave, that too much of the epoxy can be excluded from the mold?

You need enough epoxy left to glue one filament to another anything more is going along for the ride and NOT paying, these vise like pressures with the high curing heat give the best possible Physicals and yes it can be overdone. I had some carbon control surfaces from a fighter jet and they were impressive when looking at a cut edge and the zillion tiny compressed layers of material in there.

WOW......IMO, that wing completely kills the look of the car. It should fit in nicely with these though! :D

I heard you drive slow.....Boats, cars or even a big truck all under the speed limit. Biscayne Bay you never exceed the speed limit in the manatee zone. :lolhit:

I forget what the limit is there but I remember riding in your 39 MTI at 140 mph testing with you and Larry. And we got stopped by the patrol (only because we were stopped) and they let you off. I thought for sure your going to jail for those speeds.

Why not purchase the one in the photo, or is it just a rendering...

It's probably $15-$20K from Lamborghini

You have to buy the rear bumper assebly also. It's off the new LP670. About $34k to add that wing.

This is a friend's company who does a lot of aviation stuff. Not sure if he could help or not, but might be worth a look.
