    rear wing height

    guessing mainly from ride height and car balance in the cornering shot, lots of sway and starting to lift the inside tire. you can see a lot from a still shot. got any better details to share

    rear wing height

    did not say it would be easy, just stating facts. a rear wing will cause the front to get light without the reat of the areo stuff in place and properly placed, causing an unbalance in the handling. this is why race cars are not good streetcars

    rear wing height

    +2 and remember the wing is only as effective as the rest of the areo stuff it is combined with. you need a front splitter, a underbelly pan and a rear diffuser to make any substancial downforce. and without the rest of the areo stuff you can upset the balance of the car

    um wow my city is bold

    well, the city has decided to remove the special tax(for now). they informed us tonight that they were also dissatified with the contractor's work, so next summer they are gonna strip the 5 mile section and re-asphalt the whole works. i can only guess who will foot that bill.

    5 Year Old Who Could Bench Your Car AND Do A Chuck Norris Roundhouse

    not near as bad as that lil tarzan kid from a few years back(http://www.richardsandrak.com/), dont think it is the best idea in the world. but if the parents aren't forcing it, it isnt abuse. most of those excersizes are normal gymnastic and flex training, not at all bad even at his age. as long...
