"Club Downforce" ...LMAO!!!

msgross · 03-19-2007, 12:42 PM

don't these guys know that they are creating more drag than downforce with these crazy wings? Reminds me of the kids movie "cars" when the ricers drive up behind "Mack". One has a wing with five or six levels to it!!!!

Maybe he's just hauling it home for a buddy with a ricer?

3/4tonterror · 03-19-2007, 12:44 PM

Maybe its one of them half GM half IMPORT trucks, Im sure it handles better now.

JHART · 03-19-2007, 12:52 PM

Handles better .....ROFLMAO!! Yea i bet it really impoves the handling of a "lifted" full size truck.

stingray72 · 03-19-2007, 01:02 PM

funny part to me is it has a brush gaurd on the front.. That just makes it a "fast offroad truck"

1lowdiesel · 03-19-2007, 01:06 PM

got cha beat check out this video. you might have to pause it to see everything but holy crap it's bad. i see that kinda thing everyday here in jersey.

sleepyboy · 03-19-2007, 01:10 PM

I like it---NOT

jimmydean · 03-19-2007, 01:12 PM

That's part of the new Z71 package! Awesome.

timcos · 03-19-2007, 01:20 PM

Got to hold those beasts on the ground.

bryanw1968 · 03-19-2007, 01:33 PM

Sillyness. Here in central texas I see that crap ALL the time. Don't get me wrong, I know that there are 'some' ricers that actually do more than put a fart tube and miss-matched body panels on. But, the majority of these things are comical(including trucks with wings)

If you take off the wing and taillight covers the truck looks exactly like the SLED trucks used in columbia, SC (I can't remember what it stands for, but it's a division of the police department). White ex cab, blacked out wheels, black brush guard and fender flares...

Critter · 03-19-2007, 02:24 PM

I guess it gives him added downforce traction in the mud!

68Mike · 03-19-2007, 02:39 PM

BigSky71 · 03-19-2007, 03:06 PM

My rule is if a modification to your truck only requires you drill a few holes and bolt something on, its probably not cool. That sweet wing proves my point!

redneckgirl · 03-19-2007, 03:13 PM

Ummmm......WOW...just WOW....

JHART · 03-19-2007, 03:25 PM

I'm also diggin those "stick on" tail light covers ... i think this guy is sponsored by PepBoys ...LMAO

49studebaker · 03-19-2007, 04:15 PM

Perfectly good waste of a Z71, even my college age son laughs about the ricer "wings", down force on a front wheel drive car.....now that's gonna add traction.

brak · 03-19-2007, 04:18 PM

All he needs now is some neon and a bunch of stickers (doesn't matter if the parts are actually installed) and he could add another 100hp easy.
