A tip of the hat to you sir, i bid you good day.

Turn the wing over, your lift is now downforce.

The highrise spoiler doesn't do **** look under it and you will see a channel that runs along it and when it shakes in the wind that is also bad again not doing ****! If you filled the bottom and stiffened it up it would create alot more downforce.

iisbalt: at 150 mph the high rise wing puts down an extra 182 lbs of force on the back tires.
This equates to 182lbs of weigh keeping the back in from coming loose at that speed.
Is it a requirment? Thats up to you.

That would be like riding with a passenger..lol It doesn't do much but with a little work you would see huge gains. I don't care if it put 1000# of downforce it looks like **** IMO

Interesting, considering the spoiler is one piece .. it must be a manufacturer miscalculation.

Never said anything about the airplane wing. Don't know anything about that. But i do know that SS wings=junk. The downforce they do provide is from drag. Not a good design at all.

That's not true.. They do but not much cause GM failed on design.
