Raco Jac Rabbit Sprint spoiler

Post by jtherrien »

Hey guys,

I have a Jac Rabbit in the middle of restoration. Since mine came with the sprint style body shell (the big cowl popping up in the center), I've decided to make a scale spoiler for the top and nose.

I'm sure somebody has done this before, so instead of trying to figure out all of the dimensions myself, I figured I'd ask first. Does anybody have dimensions for a quarter scale sprint spoiler?

The first version will be made as a practice out of plys of break metal aluminum. Any help or suggestions are appreciated. Thanks

My wing is 12" wide x 14" long. The side air dams are 6" at the back a tapering to about 3" in the front. My Sprint doesn't have the front wing. So I can't help you there.

Decided to re-visit the construction of the spoilers.
Any further advice, pictures? What material should it be made out of, what was correct from the factory?
