Re: Active Aero
At higher speeds the front and rear spoilers lift up so that there is a bit more down force.

Re: Active Aero
Yea, down in the front is what I meant. Its mostly just a cool little thing that dosent do too much in reality.

Re: Active Aero
actually you would be surprised...some russian guy put his vr4 in a wind tunnel and got some good results
http://www.3000gtvr4.com/pages/downforce.html not that we need this to keep planted on the road and not lift off or anything...but it does have some effect

Re: Active Aero
It's not that the spoiler does -.07, that isn't important...it's that paired with the front airdam, they make the entire car have an overall aerodynamic lift of zero. The coefficients vary with speed, but the overall lift always remains 0.

Re: Active Aero
Nope, you read that wrong. The drag changed by 0, the lift has deffinatly changed.
