    Talking

    L0L...what a funny bunch of friends I have...

    No downforce Jay, I thought I might tilt the wing the other way, so the trailer "flies" down the road, thereby decreasing drag & increasing mileage... (not to mention the dread "unsprung weight"...)
    And NO, it's not gonna see any trail time, but might make a nifty bar back at the stoop...

    That VX spoiler isn't a bad idea, just way more than I'm willing to spend.

    I went into O'Reily auto parts today & asker if they had any "extremely ricey" wings/spoilers on hand. When I told the guy what it was for, he got a pretty good laugh, but said they don't deal in stuff like that...

    Being the redneck inventor/shade tree mechanic that I am, I'll prolly end up with something like this...



    And Bart, I'm a much better bartender than I am BBQ chef...

    I dunno, but I'm sure it increases his unsprung flotation...
