The word "stupid" does not even begin to describe that guy or the, um, car.

Glad it's a California car, I just imagine it being at a show and taking home a nice big trophy.

That is the most ridiculus thing i have ever seen. That wing is bigger than most hondas have. The sad part is if you take all that b/s off that thing it would be a really clean car.

I know, it's really sad. I think the worst part is that he took off the original wing to mount that thing. It looks so out of place (even more so than on Honduh's). That, and custom home made air splitter complete with adjustment rods on the front air dam. God...... that car must be really fast lol....

Actually, that car is soooo phat you guys just can't handle how dope it is...

Well, he is runnin mid 13s... lol

I really like how the rear fenders roll up for the stocker wing... which is MIA. However it does provide a nice flat mount for it.

I would love to see that wing stay on that thing at 180. LOL
But I've takin a few roads at 100mph+ with cars with wing and without wings and I really like my wing. I had a corvette(no wing) at 140 and had the rear end lift on me. I've takin my trans am (stock wing) at the same speed and faster at the same place and never had the problem. But you can tell if the car has a wing 100-120+ depending on the car.

if it was a newer vette then they are supposed to do 170+ without any real loss to stability.

any ways that is one of the sorriest jobs i have ever seen done to a camaro... i just dont get it.

I've never taken a C5 to 140+ mph speeds so can't comment how one of these might feel. Lot's of guys are running them in the 165-170 neighborhood in ORR with seemingly little problem ?? I can definitely tell you that a 4th gen T/A wing is one of the, if not THEE, best wing that ever found it's way onto a GM car. They're so good in fact that Boyce is considering putting one on his SS to run this years PE130 I don't know if Pontiac made it this good on purpose, or just designed something that they thought looked nice, and it just "happens" to work well at high speeds ?? Either way T/A owners have little to worry about concerning back end lift at high speeds. Once you get over 180ish a low front spoiler becomes a wanted/needed change, but the rear wing is a good piece "as is".

I've taken both of my vette's to 140mph many times and no rear-end lift. For instance: racing a Lambo on I-5 through the corners past Tacoma Dome heading to Seattle, 145 or so on corners and no problems. Lambo got me, but only cause he was able to sqeeze through traffic and I got stuck, man that thing was gone. It was black if anyone knows who owns it?
