Why getting old race wings to start with? Is 637 not good?

Top speed of a race wing is something REALLY hard to to measure, and ill say 99% of us wont be able to make that test. What makes a race wing better then others, is stability, balance and stall speeds for us "mortals".

And this is where the 637 shines.

If not in hurry wait till November release of 2019 wings and then 637 will be out probably as dirt cheap as 585/600
