Would be nice to compare these figures to the 99 spec or Feed wing----> http://www.aprperformance.com/index....sk=view&id=181

At 10 degree angle of attack the GTC-300 tests show over 7 times more down force than drag...

80mph
202lbs down force
28lbs drag

100mph
316lbs down force
44lbs drag

120mph
458lbs down force
64lbs drag

I like the engineering they did there, but note that these numbers are only rough estimates. CFD is not very accurate at calculating drag and frictional effects. Still, this product is one of the best documented and engineered I've seen yet.
