Baked Daytona chicken wings

So I had never been to Hooters before, but on date night I decided to spoil my fiance and go to Hooters before watching Fast and Furious 6. He'd been there with work friends a few times and had been raving about their Daytona chicken wings.

We went through a stage were we'd go to Food Lovers Market and buy a ton of chicken wings in BBQ sauce, bake 'em, and consume them in the tons. This was alright, but never gave the zing of 'Merican style hot wings.

After the Hooters visit, I was impressed but not ecstatic about the wings. Fast forward one week later, and all I can think about are those freaking Hooters Daytona chicken wings! I'm pretty sure they put crack or something in them. So I decided to do a little snooping online to see if there was any recipes for similar style wings that we can make at home, and not-to-my-surprise, there's quite a few. Here is the recipe for the one that, to me, is the best looking one, plus it's baked and not deep fried, so you'll save a lot of calories.

Chicken Wings:
1. 10 Chicken wings
2. 3/4 cup of flour
3. 1 tablespoon paprika
4. 1 teaspoon pepper
5. 1 teaspoon salt
6. Olive oil spray
SAUCE:
8. 3/4 cup BBQ sauce
9. 1/4 cup hot sauce
10. 1/4 cup honey
11. 2 tablespoons brown sugar
12. 1 tablespoon garlic powder
13. 1 tablespoon soy sauce
14. a few sprinkles of crushed red pepper (if you like 'em hot)
15. 1 teaspoon corn starch (mix this with a few drops of cold water)
