Interesting link to racecar close-ups

I was going through looking at the suspension setups on many of the cars. Always wanting to improve the Z and love to build things....

 

It looks like many of the cars have the suspension setup on the back so that when it starts to get light (the strut presses out) it looks like via mechanical linkages it tilts the spoiler to add downforce! That is genius if that's really what it does! Maybe this is more of a safety thing to keep the cars on the ground?

BTW.. this is a pretty good picture of what I'm talking about.

I think you're looking at the rear sway bar, if you're talking about the thing that says 025 on it. The parts that stick up from it are the blade adjustable sway bars. Looks like it's set on full hard in the picture.

 

Oh :(

 

Well goes to show how much i know about racecar suspension lol.

Now I know..
