I got this video from another site, but it was to hilarious to leave to them alone

.

The majority of us should find this funny.

I think my favorite point is him talking about buying a wing, "It's for downforce, dumba$$."
"Right, downforce, on a front wheel drive car?!"

*Mindz* · 11-15-2007, 08:37 PM

Simply great.

*DGthe3* · 11-15-2007, 11:33 PM

That was pretty good. I liked the bit about the exhaust

Jeff · 11-15-2007, 11:49 PM

lmfao, "Holy sh** I own a race car, I'm going to auto zone to buy a wing for it."

You know.. I really hate import cars with a passion.. besides european ones anyways.

actually the wing still helps on a front wheel drive car. it puts downforce on the rear wheels which helps when cornering at high speeds. i still think they look stupid and theres no need on anything but a race car but whatever helps mow the lawn faster i guess lol

EllwynX · 11-16-2007, 08:16 AM

LOL Good find. I always did call it the 'Shopping Cart Wing'.

Actually, despite being front heavy, most fwd cars will still tend lose traction at the front wheels first and push through corners, so actually adding a rear wing hurts handling even more. That is provided you can get a little import tuner up to high enough speeds to take advantage of downforce. Not likely. Silly imports.

240's, carollas, Supras, Skylines (some) are RWD. The Honda's I can agree with though.
