^^ it is pretty ignorant to say that aero doesnt apply to automotive. have you seen any class of race car from the past 40 years?

Yeah, as an avid fan of formula 1, i'm well aware of how aero plays a part in motorsports.

you shouldnt say its totally useless until you know for certain it doesn't help any.

it doesnt look any worse than any other big ass GT wing people put on, but i don't like any of them.
