Description
The Verus Engineering Drag Wing for the S550 Ford Mustang GT350 is engineered specifically for high-performance drag racing and high-speed applications where reducing aerodynamic drag and maintaining rear-end stability are critical. By reducing the pressure drag generated behind the Mustang, this rear drag wing helps make the vehicle more aerodynamically efficient when traveling down the drag strip, airfield, or during half-mile and standing-mile events.
Unlike conventional large rear wings that prioritize maximum downforce, the Verus Engineering Drag Wing is optimized to reduce drag while maintaining useful rear downforce and high-speed stability. The aerodynamic profile was developed using advanced analysis software and CFD to suit the available build volume and the demands of high-horsepower drag racing applications.
The Drag Wing mounts directly to the factory trunk and is engineered to properly manage the aerodynamic loads generated at speed. Its bolt-on design provides a straightforward installation while maintaining a near-OEM appearance and fit.
During development, Verus Engineering utilized in-house vehicle scan data to create a precise design that integrates cleanly with the S550 Mustang. The result is a performance-focused rear spoiler with an OEM-like fit and finish.
For drag racers looking to reduce aerodynamic drag while maintaining rear tire grip and stability at high speeds, the Verus Engineering Drag Wing is an effective addition to the S550 Mustang. It also works exceptionally well with the Verus Engineering Ventus 1 Package, further reducing drag while adding rear-end stability and helping improve drag ETs.

Aerodynamic Performance
The Verus Engineering Drag Wing was specifically developed for the S550 Ford Mustang GT350 enthusiast who wants to reduce aerodynamic drag without sacrificing rear tire grip and high-speed stability.
The wing works by reducing the pressure drag generated behind the vehicle. Lowering the pressure bubble at the rear of the Mustang improves aerodynamic efficiency, helping the vehicle move through the air with less resistance.
At the same time, the Drag Wing generates a controlled amount of rear downforce. This provides additional rear-end stability and helps maintain traction at high speeds, making it particularly beneficial for drag racing, half-mile, and standing-mile applications.
When combined with the Verus Engineering Ventus 1 aerodynamic package, the Drag Wing can further reduce drag while adding a controlled amount of rear downforce. This combination is designed to help reduce drag ETs, improve straight-line efficiency, maintain rear tire grip, and increase driver confidence at speed.
Installation
The Verus Engineering Drag Wing is designed to bolt directly to the OEM trunk for a straightforward installation. The included adjustable support rods allow the wing to be properly positioned while the supplied hardware provides everything required for installation.
Verus Engineering provides installation videos and detailed installation manuals for the majority of its products to assist with the installation process.
