Another thing to note is that all these effects that wings have are only noticable at high speed.

you also mentiond in your post something about this guy trying to draft you like in NASCAR. Well rember NASCAR cars are bigger than your car so they push more air out infront of them also they are going almost 200 MPH. going that fast and moving that much air out of the way thoes cars almost create a vacume behind them pulling the other car. Aero dynamcs also don't play a real big role in your cars rate of acceraltion. it comes into factor at about 80-100 MPH depending on your car i highly doubt that guy was drafting you

ok. well, he was just trying to tel me he kept up much easier cuz he was behind me which i beleive cuz i can almost keep up with my friends mid 15 second teg with my mid 16 second hatch when im behind him but side by side it is much worse for me, but he was trying to tell me that a spoiler makes you accelerate faster because the air swirls around and pushes you forwards. and that sounds kinda weird cuz if it was true every car maker would put one on all their cars so that they were faster IMO
