Default Re: Delay wing deployment to 75 mph

I wasn't sure if this post should go here, or if I should have made a new topic for it.
Anyway, I did some quick calculations last night, and figured out the following.



Downforce generated by extended rear spoiler @ diffrent speeds

10mph = 5lbs.

20mph = 10lbs.

30mph = 15lbs.

40mph = 20lbs.

50mph = 25lbs.

60mph = 30lbs.

70mph = 35lbs.

80mph = 40lbs.

90mph = 45lbs.

100mph = 50lbs.

110mph = 55lbs.

120mph = 60lbs.

130mph = 65lbs.

140mph = 70lbs.

150mph = 75lbs.

160mph = 80lbs.

170mph = 90lbs.

180mph = 100lbs.




Also, if I'm wrong on my calculations, which I very well could be, since math never was one of my strong points, feel free to repost the table, with correct numbers..
