Streetfighter Spoiler Opinion Poll - Lateral-g Forums

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.

Old thread.....

Jake Parrott and I made 13 of those spoilers (including James' spoiler). For the amount of hand finishing that went into the long, broad surfaces, the profit wasn't to my liking. The compound curvature of the deck lid didn't help on the labor side. So they ended up as a truly limited edition piece.

They really do offer a ton of adjustability as well as an aggressive look. I can't imagine my car without that spoiler. An we're thrilled that one unit contributed to the One Lap Camaro legend.

Maybe I'll make more....

Wow - this is an old thread and a blast from the past.

The Street Fighter spoiler was an awesome piece and while not for everyone has proven it's worth on the OLC over the past five years. It's going to be strange running without it but four bolts and it's back.

Personally I hope that there aren't any more made but can appreciate that there is a market for them. There's definitely some opportunity for improvement and maybe I'll go down that road some day myself.

Jake and Steve - thanks!
