Default Wings.....

Tell me what the point of a huge aluminum wing is on a front wheel drive car?

I can see like a small wing/spoiler on your car but a damn aluminum wing that looks like a cell phone tower on the back of your car is just plain rice?

Im not tryin to bust other ppl's cars but I was just wondering...

Anyone agree?

Big aluminum wing adds 100 hp to the wheels on ricer cars.

In the real racing world fwd drive cars tend to have a lot taken out to make them at part with the rwd and awd cars and if they don't have the wings you are going for a big spin on any moderate speed corner.

some people say cell phone tower, i say bench. oddly enough, it does make a nice table on the go. riceboys must be great during tailgate sessions.

The ricer thing is too true especially where Im from....People here consider that a major mod..lmao

But the other part I didnt know.....

But I mean damn is there really a need for a wing that big...table to go, bench, cell phone tower...whatever we call them, in the end its still rice!

You might be a ricer if:

-You put a wing on top of your stock spoiler

-You put a double deck wing on your fwd car for downforce

-Birds make nests on your spoiler

:rofl:

Damn so how much horsepower does 25 stickers add.....LMAO
Depends on the size of the sticker. On average they add 25-30 hp... now a huge sticker easily adds 100-120 hp.

My dream is to bang a redhead on the wing of a red Ferrari F50. h: Now that my friend is a wing with a purpose.

You've been saying the same thing since 2000, damn you must get really annoying. Sounds like you need to to hit yourself on the head, coz you might be stuck on repeat.
