Re: This is why race cars have big wings

I clicked a few links and read a bit more about it. It appears that it happened at VIR and it might have been a NASA event. There are several pages of discussion on this and wings in general if you follow it a little bit.

Apparently this guy had one of the ones with 1/4" braces. One of the same wings in 1/8" broke recently as well.

Motorcycle cop pulls up next to me on UNI and says "Want to race?"
Me- "I don't think you would stand a chance."
Cop says "probably not" and drives off.
