Down at AAS yesterday. All the modified cars had huge spoilers. I thought 8" was the limit, but it looked more like a foot. Got to figure out what is legal and get one of those puppies on 222. |

JJackson Wow-you get 10" from highest point of rear deck and sides-pay close attention to the sides!JJackson Right and I have to check whether or not there is a restriction on the number square feet or angle of the spoiler. Man you could put a lot of surface area back there as long as you don't exceed the 10" rule, right? Here is the rule: 2. It is a non-production rear spoiler which is mounted to the rear portion of the rear hatch, deck, or trunk lid. The spoiler may extend no more than 10 inches from the original bodywork in any direction. Alternatively in a hatchback, the spoiler may be mounted to the rear hatch lid at or near the top of the hatch in such a confi guration the spoiler may extend not more than 7.5 inches form the original bodywork in any direction. The spoiler may be no wider that the bodywork. The use of endplates is prohibited. Spoiler endplates are defi ned as any vertical (or semi-vertical) surfaces attached in front of the spoiler which have the result of capturing and redistributing air (downforce) along all or any portion of the spoiler. The angle of attack is free. The spoiler may not function as a wing. |
