I'll take the hit on this one. But you're right, I'm a moron and hereby back down from a potential flame war.

Heres the car I thought this Del Sol was. I'm happy to see this wasn't the guy who decided to fiberglass his interior.

Not to mention that a wing this large would, at its intended speed, lift the drive wheels from the ground. These kids are their parents best friends, and they don't even realize it, he basically built in an aerodynamic speed limiter while trying to increase his "performance".

No dude, that's why you get the FWD car! So your wing can lift the rear wheels off the ground and reduce drag!
