As I understand aerodynamics, those supports are located on the wrong side but don't quote me on it. At 170mph I don't feel like finding out.

no Dane you are correct... its not the "right" way, Tyler just did it that way so he could use the previous holes from the factory style spoiler so he didn't have some unsightly holes on his deck lid.

Makes perfect sense now that I think about it.

I love it, talking about the function. I don't see to many venues except the Silver State classic where it's even worth mentioning. Then I can't imagine it making much difference. I can't imagine needing more rear down force when the front end is like a parachute on these things anyway. Racey as hell, but we aren't going 150 mph. At least I'm not!

anything above 130mph without a spoiler and the ass gets lofty

The stock spoilers sufficient though, but in track conditions, more aero is never a bad thing. Cal speedway and Chuckwalla coming up

I say do what you like too. It has to make you happy.

I like those spoilers, everyone has the stock one. I went a little different way, I have a 69 Trans Am spoliler to be a little different.
