    None of this matters, really, your car is still scuffed up.

    What do you mean, "Yeh, that's because you have a FWD car "?

    That you can take 90º turns @ 45mph. But the funny thing is that if you actually bothered to read my post, I gave that attribute to FWD

    Yeah, thats why my car is better than yours. Duh.

    Gee dude, for the amount of **** you dish out, you think you'd be able to take it as well...

    Maybe you should try this "eSarcasm" helmet. It will change the way you think, and feel, forever.

    Nah. Its just cosmetic damage. No contact with any other part of the car.

    Here, wing = insanely high spoiler made out of aluminum most of the time
    ahahahahahaha technically speaking boris, a wing is an aerofoil section where as a spoiler is something which 'spoils' the airflow and disrputs it thus destroying unwanted lift or altering the airflow path! They are two completely different things!

    NOW BEFORE YOU TRY AND ARGUE I HAVE A DEGREE IN BUILDING PLANES - YOU DON'T SO KEEP QUIET!

    oh for duck sake boris!!!! admit it. you think of wings and spoilers as one and the same!

    as for aerofoil....an aircraft wing is an aerofoil section. do i have to explain how this works? Well basically the path of the air over oneside of the aerofoil fromthe leading edge stagnation point to the trailing edge is longer due to a greater amount of curvature and also camber. This means the air has to travel faster to obey the laws of momentum and thus the pressure on the faster side is lower so the side with slower air is thus pushed towards the faster air side by the greater air pressure. and this is what we refer to as lift. And this lift can be up, inthe case of a plane main wing, or down int he case of a planes rear horizontal stabiliser ot a car wing.
