Not true. Wings have less than 0 function at an autocross (add weight FTL).

Autocross/road racing.. he said the inproved downforce helped
On a road course, yes, at an autocross, no. You need to be going <~65mph before that wing will start giving any noticable downforce.

Don't believe everything er, scratch that, ANYTHING people tell you about their car at a car show.

at the last car show that I saw andy at he told me that he had a new bolt on (but he called it a strap on for some reason) called vagitraction. He explained that he had traction control on his car. then he showed it to me, and he was just turning the A/C on. Oddly enough it works.

It's already in silverstone and provides 420lbs of "downforce"!
