If "racing" cars dont have aerokits and wheels, they cant opperate as they do now.
Just imagine a F1 car driving down stpete track on brake rotors, and not having spoilers to help add traction running those turns at 150+ mph

Of course they dont have a shot with customers swarmed around the place, get real. Im sure a high percentage of their customers are ricers like you see everyday. They are selling their product, not trying to impress people with their high customer numbers.
They sent me those pix to show me a sample of what they display. If you want to see a customer in there, I'll gladly ask them to take a picture of a customer pointing at a wheel in a thong. I suppose a really "cool" performance shop should only sell to people who hit the tracks every weekend, who are serious about their sport in the automotive world.
Ricers?....we all are, just admit it.

Was this a serious post?

I dont think Tony Kanan or the likes have ever, or will ever step foot in that store.

But whatever helps you sleep at night...

sandy all the aero in that store is purely cosmetic. have you ever seen real race cars with canards, splitters, and diffusers. and actual fuctional wings. i saw none of those and i know that the aero in that store isn't tested in a wind tunnel. sorry you lose.

no it wasnt.
I suppose St. Mary church (downtown stpete) isn't a true catholic church until the pope himself, or one of the cardinals set foot in it. Maybe it was a bad thing for me to go there.

You didn't answer my question.
How can you say that they dont stock "fuctional" aerokits out of those 2 pictures? I'll take that you kept up with what they stock, and have written proof that the spoiler that they carry are only used for decorations.
Tell me how i lost?

because they wouldn't carry functional aero since very few companies actually test there products in wind tunnels. and the ones who do are very expensive. and you lost because you post stupid ass threads on the hour every hour.
