[QUOTE="meekrab, post: 13225582, member: 305315"] Yes, a road car is doing extremely well to simply have an even aero balance, let alone any significant amount of downforce. Even something like the 911 GT3 RS has its downforce figure quoted as 770 lbs at 186 mph (350 kg at 83 m/s) which is not a realistic speed for any sort of cornering. If we assume downforce rises with the square of velocity, in a medium speed corner (say, 80 kph) the car isn't even making 30 kg of downforce. Basically negligible. A real GT3 car makes about 1000 kg of downforce at 200 kph, for comparison. [/QUOTE]
