Default Anyone had issues with V1 lip on road course?

I just bought a V1 lip in Polyurethane and am concerned with it deforming under heavy loads.

Veilside responded, commenting that it will not hold shape under high speed conditions.

Has anyone ran at a road course with the urethane lip? Any issues? What MPH did you acheive?

Regards.

Been at 120+ in 104 degree weather with no problems. Don't see how it could be an issue except maybe scraping the corners of it on sharp turns if you're lowered.

Thanks for the input. We'll see how it goes. I'll be reaching 140-150mph at BIR and Road America so it will definitely get a good workout.

Seems like it should channel more air into the FMIC and should give me a little more front downforce for the 100mph plus turns at both tracks.

Thanks again.
