I'll start with my pics of the yellow Integra Type-S HRC concept.
Re: 2024 SEMA - Honda Racing
I'm not a fan of the HRC wing. Looks a bit out of proportion. FL5 wing seems to take it's "measurement box" from the upper half of the car. The FL5 rear wing extends rearward to the end of the upper hatch while the wing width extends to the sides of the upper part of the car.
The HRC DE5 wing looks to have the rear wing extend rearward over the hatch and to the edge of the rear bumper while the wing endplates align with the widest part of the car. Maybe HRD aerodynamicists determined this to be the best configuration for whatever their goals are for an HRC ITS. I think with all the black contrasting parts the HRC ITS would look better with black wing endplates. Peter Cunningham explained that he extended the rear wing of his Pikes Peak TLX past the rear bumper "measurement box" that the World Challenge spec TLX had to adhere to. Extending the wing made it act like a lever and gave a bit more downforce than if it wasn't extended rearward at all.
