[Chevelle-list] OT - followup to Worlds Fastest Production Carpost

[Dale]

Don't get me wrong, I wasn't knocking the idea of the wing.  I'm certainly
not an engineer but you look at the spoilers and soon-to-be-wings on
NASCAR's COT, top fuel and funny cars, and think of the wing as a
stabilizing and rear down force item.  In order to obtain the speed it does,
I assume down force is sacrificed for aerodynamics.

 

Or, like Rick said, maybe too much down force on the back would make the
front end tend to lift.  It'd be a fun ride none the less!
