Only thing that makes it look funny to me is the giant end plates.

I like the exhaust but it's not optimal for a white S.

I also like it Rob! I actually sent him a message and asked about it and he sent me picture of it. Also has the hardrace diff bushing on the car that look pretty good. Nice car! I really like the big ass wing for a all out track car but would of choose smaller end plate as someone mentioned above.

Well style aside, if the end plates are functional .... Make it a winged sprint car for all I care

I'm not building to any series specifically, but were I to get one of these how wide and tall are most of the NASA classes allowing?

Do the supports have provisions to easily adjust the height, or would one need multiple supports?

Clark;

here is the NASA Time Trial wing specifications, from 2012. 2013 has not been released yet, but I'm thinking there have been no conversations about changing this. Adding a wing will be part of the points modifications you are assessed. I think these basic rules also apply to PT and ST classes, but you'd have to check

"a rear wing or spoiler may not exceed a height of eight (8) inches above the roofline (or OEM windshield height for convertibles), or a width greater than the width of the car body. (note: additional points must be assessed for end plates that are greater than twelve inches in height"

There has been an interpretation that the mirrors are not part of the "car body" so their width may not be taken into consideration when calculating wing width

Looks good OP. I like the mounts yours came with - a bit different than mine. That side exhaust is pretty sweet as well. I had entertained doing it in front of the rear tire, but the extra bends/modifications/time made it easier to just get a simple pipe and call it a day. I like the creativity and execution.

I have a 68" Kognition as well. Bought it used from user SubeStile - he has an identical one. He told me he ordered this size because it fell within the width shadow of the car which is 70" at the rear fender flare.
