Feel the sudden and vast improvement in the car's responses as a result of the sudden increase in rear downforce.


In all seriousness, I have often forgotten to manually extend the one on my SpecBox (no electric assist on a race car) and it makes absolutely no difference to lap times or performance.


My response therefore to your question would be - who cares?

When I first got my car, I wondered if the spoiler worked also. You can't see it in the rear view mirror, so I put a long piece of masking tape across it at a 90º angle and went for a "spirited" drive. If the spoiler is working, the tape will be torn or pulled up when you stop and check it.
