hi guys, I'm putting my car up the 1/4 next weekend to see if I can improve in my 14.08 seconds.
I've sorted the boost and I've also took the spoiler off. Looks a bit different !   Does anyone know how much the spoiler off will help, time wise. -------------------- |

your car will not benefit from adding a spoiler in the 1/4. you are not getting near the trap speed to make it worth your money and the drag on the rear may either not do anything or actually make your times worse. use your money wiser and get something more useful like engine upgrades or drag radials/slicks.

Isn't he saying that he's taking off the spoiler, not adding one? This post has been edited by MercuryFree: May 1, 2009 - 9:33 AM --------------------  |
