Does Aero Kits Affect Drifting?

[rjlee]

I was just wondering do they affect drifting, because I was going to buy it for one of my drifting cars.

I've wondered this too. At least the purchase isn't permanent so you can change back.
You should do a comparison and let us know the results.
I don't imagine it would affect your drift too much but that could easily vary depending on corner speed and wing settings.

I highly doubt it makes a lot of difference. If you see a drift car with a wing it's just for looks.

Wings create downforce, downforce helps traction, strangely enough traction is necessary for effective drifting. The effect is diminished somewhat @ higher drift angles, but it effects nonetheless.

 

[zedfonsie]

it gives you traction which adds speeds but causes understeer.

Yes, aero kits do affect drifting. Drive a car without it for a while, then drive that same car with max downforce and you should feel a bit of difference.

Yes but if you spend all day drifting 60-80kph corners, you're very unlikely to experience any difference.

I pull sharp corners @ 40-60 kph on my low powered cars(miata, cappucino) regularly, yes there is a difference, especially evident w/ a wheel(dfgt)

Interesting. Looks like I'll need to test this myself.

Yes, it makes your ride look hella cool.

Except with this selection, they all look hella same.

Do you know what a joke is?
