I'm sure it helps. Ever Time Attack car in Japan uses them. And they don't build those Time Attack cars for looks... |

400lbs of downforce looks great in my eyes I'm curious. Did you get some wind tunnel time to measure that? Or is that what it's advertised as? I have no doubt it provides downforce...but 400lbs? |

All the data is on APR's website, it's a true airfoil no a ricer wing and adjustable which is great.
Of course 400lbs is max at 120mph I believe in ideal conditions. My buddy has the same wing he got earlier in the season and his laptimes dropped dramatically as the rear is much more stable in high speed corners. |

So is that thing portable? Can you easily take it off and put on another vehicle? I'm thinking that much downforce would also come in handy for the truck when towing said car! Of course you could also get two so the car on the trailer and the truck stay firmly planted while heading down the 401.  |
