like the self adjusting wing on the back of a 99 vr4
this actually changes its oriantation the faster it moves
therefore the percentage of downforce relative to the speed of the vehicle also increases
same thing on the 911 turbo, but it only goes up past 75 or something, im not sure if it moves relative to the speed?

Mazda... Slow slow...

Buick, Uhhh... Tiger Woods sells our cars so we're badass!

Oldsmobile, In 2004 we'll be NO MORE TEHEEE Buy an Olds!

Lexus, Pay more for a Camry with a Facelift! YAY!

hahaha you people have no sense of humor...

you couldnt take a joke if you were paid to.

sheesh, camry with a facelift... uhh the ES300 is exactly the same as a Camry..

Same motor ... same tranny. uhh lets see Umm same options... all you get is a Camry with a facelift and a higher price tag. :hehehe:

oh and a leather wrapped shift knob... oh wait you can get a Camry with one of those too...

I guess you folks didnt realise i slammed Chevy harder than any other of them Manufacturers? And i'm a die hard chevy fan... but whateverrrr.

back on topic...


i'm not 100% sure, but the new nsx also dropped some weight if i remember correctly...

and yeah, at 70 power to weight is still important, and the miata is by no means an aerodynamic brick... gearing also plays in, b/c you could have a car that has 100 hp that can top out at 200 mph, it would just take days to get there... same gearing with more power gets there quicker... so the miata is quicker to the same speed in each gear...

and i mention power to weight b/c alot of people think that since the vette has more power overall that it should be the clear winner... but the miata has a significant boost in power, as was implied "more power is always better"

when it was stated that the ferrari "doesnt' have a wing"

the previous post noted "wings and other aerodynamic aids"

have you seen the bottom of the ferrari?
undertrays are extremely important in creating downforce. that is why it doesn't need the wing. channeling air efficiently under the body can do the same as channeling it efficiently above. that is why alot of very high speed vehicles have nearly smooth undertrays that are aerodynamically tuned to create downforce, and keep wings smaller to reduce drag.
