Re: Down Force Spoiler - - Aeronautics Question

Neil,

By my comments, I suspect that you know that I am a novice when speaking 
of aerodynamics, but, it is my understanding that the vent function is 
to break the lift created by the low pressure over the deck of the car. 
Wouldn't it also negate any ground effects toward the rear of the car 
that might be created by under car airflow?
