Be a good asian, eat your rice, don't drive it.

I'm just wondering, why do people think spoilers only help RWD cars? At the speeds you're travelling at for a spoiler to affect anything, there will be no significant weight transfer from accelerating hard, so where the spoiler helps you is for turning, and turning uses traction from all 4 wheels no matter if it's FWD, RWD, or AWD.

They need to make a "How to convert any car into Trailer Park Trash". A good car would be a Tarus/escort.


Cheers.:beer:

When power is being delivered from the rear wheels, and from the lift action that is taking place. In the front of the car, you have the two forces, the weight of the front of the car (going down) and the force of the lift action (going up). In the back, there will be four forces. The weight of the back of the car (going down), the downforce from the wing/spoiler (also going down), the lift (going up), and the normal force from the spinning tire (also going up). Now if you switch, to a FWD car, you will see that in the front, you have 2 upward forces and 1 downward force. In the rear, you have 2 downward force, and one upward force.

PS. Don't listen to me. I'm just bsing my answer...

Dude, you better stop. Eat your rice instead of driving it.

Unless you are driving around at 150 mph that spoiler does SFA.

The reason it works for RWD is because that is where the drive wheels are. The downforce of the spoiler keeps the rear of the car planted to the track to keep traction. It has diddly to do with turning.
