One of the reasons Ford had so much trouble with the 69 and 70 Mustang Mach I was because the spoilers were all installed backwards.
Oooooh, cool trivia! :)

I dont know but this would be cool, for some reason I am thinking the 68 Cuda. I wander if there is info on the drag on all these cars somewhere?

Too bad the tables don't list anything that would be slant powered.

Wouldn't it be cool if the wind tunnel results came back and it's a 1961 Lancer?

Oops. Not an A-body.
Uh...yeah, it is.

Unless the sanctioning body is brainless enough to open the Mopar Performance book and say "It says here the first A-body was in '64" or something equally dumb. In which case, have fun playing by even more arbitrary rules based on even more faulty factoids...!

An idea I have had kicking around for awhile is to build a Volare based "Superbird" using a Volare/Aspen coupe, an 81-83 imperial nose, and a big wing on the back. :lol:

Put the wing high enough to be in clean air - and to clear the trunk lid! :wink:

For the wing to do any good, you have to have enough horsepower to get the car over 150. Below that, all the wing does is add drag. :shock:

You mean adding the wing doesn't automagically add 10mph and take 2 seconds off your stoplight to stop light performance? Well at least they look sick on that calico Hyundai. :roll:

That's why Superbirds and Daytonas were the original "ricer" cars. They didn't work on them either. :shock:
