That's right.
There's a vector dimension which you are totally ignoring.
If you're using "lift" in the strictest sense, that's a BAD thing for the (rear) spoiler to be doing, period.

No serpentine there...

The CAS is under the alternator on the right side of the engine.

That's right."


when I said this I should have contextualized it better. I meant that a wing on a car is flipped upside down, providing lift in the opposite to what is commonly referenced as ' THE lift ( in the positive) direction' .

Where's the puke smiley when you need it...

IMO, everything about the car is wrong. Ugly rims, ugly kit, ugly wing. Idk what else can really go wrong.
