There are different opinions on it, there have been guys going really fast with no wing, but other people say a coupe should have a wing after 150mph. I spoke with some NMRA guys that say for sure a coupe should have one after 150mph. Kevin Patterson told me the same thing.

    The BFG cars seem to do better because their front ends are a lot more loose. Wheely bars and BFGs. Cars like Johnnys with the front end tied down are ones that seem to get loose at the top. I know Tim Huspin ran fast without one also. I got loose through the lights once before at Stanton when I didnt have one and that was only going 155. That hasn't happened since the wing and the car is faster now. Who knows really, but if you have a chute it will look fast anyhow, so you can't really fool anyone.

    my car is lighter than trace meyer car too, beleive me i dont want to put one on but it cant hurt it. only help it so im gonna bite the bullet and get one this week probably. i already have to put weight in the trunk to make it work in the back cause its so light back there, hopefully the wing will help it on the big end

    Why? Were not talking about my car...... We are off topic about wings and when they should/shouldn't be used.

    Mine isn't finished, again

    I was just curious. You were debating on a wing. so I asked a simple question.

    X2!!!! Just picked up an anti-roll bar from him. Almost too nice to put underneath the car!

    shit everyone's getting a chute. maybe i'll get one, i got drum brakes and my car didnt stop last year worth a shit, maybe i'll get one, its cheaper then buying disk brakes for a 12 bolt. i am only gonna be about 15-18 mph from needing one.
