Default Re: Smoked a ricer today

Diffenitely agree with GLBLWARMR on the diffierence between the ricers from Japan and USA. I learned most of what I know about ricers from Dragon at Motorsports Authority. That was the passion that moved Him to have His own custom shop and the ricers are the bread and butter. He does run allot of muscle cars through and I got Him into the Hummers. Dragon has a Celica Gt that has never lost a show and runs like it has a rocket in it. He runs a turbo etc. I have asked some of the ricers with wings on front wheel drives and i have been told that if you know what You are doing and buying the correct wing for the car saying the front drive that the rear wing if adjustable does still help in all wheel road contact when handling is needed as in SCCA racing type deal. These will of course have a front spoiler as well. My understanding that adjusting the wing helps with control on front wheel drive if used for the right reason, so i have to just go with guys that i know that run SCCA.
GLBLWARMR I would think would know more having been in Japan.

I absolutely agree though that 99% of the ricers runing around the streets have no reason to have a wing on except for looks.
