just some food for thought, with a big car like a vl which has a long wheel base and is very stable, you are not going to see and great changes with a rear wing, other then increased drag and slower mph. there are reasons to put wings on cars and wehn you talk to someone like craig burns from street car fab in sydney, reasons are wheel spin in the deep end. he was quoted as sayign recently in zoom mag most cars running over 155mph need to look at putting one on. i rang him as im at 165mph, we discussed data from the passes and there was no issue in my car even on the small 28x9 with the IRS to put a wing on. scott hoffmans 7 sec ke20 corolla is another example, he is runnning 180 mph on a radial tyre and no issue with wheel spin on a leaf sprung rear end. if its needed go for it, but if stability isnt a problem then probably nto worth spending the dollars and losing MPH

I would have thought that more guys would be using under car aero for down force and drag reduction?
