Have hot rod track car GT replica.....Installed front air dam (AAs Ultimate Air Dam...modified for flares) Trying to develop some downforce for high speed turns ...
A: Will it work
B. Do I need real lip spoiler for balance
Seemed to get differing "opinions"

Anybody have real life results?
Thanks
Terry

Do you have a rear spoiler? Front & Rear need to work together.

The rear of our cars tend to get light at speed. When you say High Speed Turns, how fast do you mean?

TC;
You kind of answered the question ...front and rear work together ......
At home track CMP "kink" is 110 plus..... Also planning for Road Atlanta in June.
I have a rear "lip" spoiler to install....just hadn't decided to "drill" as yet.
A big M3 came in with splitter and wing and was able to blow through there "flat out " according to driver.......Not sure my cajonies are sufficient for that or that it is totally accurate but ....... !
