 It's really a shame. This post has been edited by Justice: Feb 1 2008, 08:11 AM -------------------- "A man who shoots abortion doctors is an extremist. An eco-fanatic who torches logging sites is an extremist. Abdulmutallab is not one of these. He is a jihadist. And unlike the guys who shoot abortion doctors, jihadists have cells all over the world; they blow up trains in London, nightclubs in Bali and airplanes over Detroit (if they can); and are openly pledged to war on America.
Any government can through laxity let someone slip through the cracks. But a government that refuses to admit that we are at war, indeed, refuses even to name the enemy -- jihadist is a word banished from the Obama lexicon -- turns laxity into a governing philosophy."-Charles Krauthammer  |

QUOTE (Chuck_H @ Feb 1 2008, 06:34 AM)    Clearly some people simple don't understand the years of testing that went into selecting the GT-R's original spoiler. I guess if no other thing this individual is really robbing himself of the true driving dynamics of the car. His loss I say. --------------------  GT-R, Blurring the the lines between performance and affordablity |

It reminds me of a dog during Christmas time... When it's forced to wear a pullover sweater and reindeer antlers... That car looks just like those dogs do... Embarrassed.

This was bound to happen. Now let's wait to see who is first to do a widebody kit.

i can see this working if they wind tunnel test it first. alot of tuners just slap one on in hopes it will help, others know how to tune them, but do they really work? do they know if it works? dunno, mabe they feel it works.?

I don't think they test the wings out properly. I'd think they would change the lower rear with an even more aggressive diffuser and front bumper treatments...

Ugly for the street but if it's for time attack I can guarantee that wing is producing way more downforce than the stocker. Yes even without a wind tunnel. Wind tunnel would be ideal to get the perfect trade off of slip vs drag.
No need for that much downforce on the street, and doesn't look right on the street. -------------------- |

Looks like it's registered, so that car is probably being used on the street. I wonder what they did for a 3rd brake light.

Wow! For a second, I thought they made a special trolley car to look like the GT-R, and that was the connector to the cables over-head.

Wind tunnel would be ideal to get the perfect trade off of slip vs drag. No need for that much downforce on the street, and doesn't look right on the street. Agreed, but that car clearly is not a time attack car. Doesn't even have a roll cage installed, just a giant wing and aftermarket seats. If I saw a stripped interior, lowered slightly due to a new suspension setup, and a full roll cage I would get it. Although, I am sure we will see some, street only cars even here with one of these. Depends on how many rich kids parents sign a check for a new GT-R. |
