Ok finally finshing up body work and going to re-spreay the car. I would like to paint everything at once.

Outside of a gt race wing sitting at roof height do any of the other smaller spoilers actually do anything or do they just make u feel better.
The car will have a front spoiler, trans am-ish.. wide body that will see track lap days. turbo power...

Sheridan....??

modified stock car ( speedway lexan)???

My old car had a little gt spoiler, I though it settled it down some at speed but it could have been a head thing..!!

a rear spoiler is absolute necessary for sustained speeds over 120 mph. the car just gets way too light if you do not have one installed. We had a great high speed "last six" that we ran at road atlanta, and it, with the rear spoiler, was very very stable even over 150 mph, but in vanity wanted to return it to the stock look. Once we removed the spoiler the car became very very light feeling at high speeds
