- Since I'm sending mail to the list... Does the Limited Edition Spoiler help with any down force? I find my car at highway speed has way too light steering/front end feel. I redid the entire front end

- Yeesh. I don't know what highway speeds you're running, but I can't imagine you are starting to get TOO much aerodynamic lift at 70 or 80 MPH. Maybe a touch, but probably not enough to make the fron

- You might want to check toe in. Your 77 B should not feel "too" light at speed. Too much toe out will result in the car feeling light, adding a bit more toe in will help with tracking. Personally I

- Which is fortunately about 30 mph faster than any LE is likely to be able to go (unless dropped off a cliff...)! We found that in MGs that WILL go that fast, downforce isn't as much an issue as exclu

- Paul, remember he's talking about an RB car. They are higher off the road to start with, and presumably a lot of air can get under the front at speed. He didn't mention having new rear springs -- if

- I'm going to check ride height. No, no new springs in the back. There's what is potentially a DPO nightmare back there, so I've been avoiding it. The shocks in back are working fine. From the untrain

- On a road car at least, that's what primarily creates downforce. The lack of air under the car creates a low pressure area. Nature abhors a vacuum and all that... I'm assuming that anyone who found
