Car spoiler - style through technology

When you watch an Indy 500 or a Formula 1 race on TV you are amazed at how the cars perform. And as you see them go round the track they look great and therefore these racing cars are often shown as eye candy to attract visitors at shopping malls. But then you think that a racing car is all about performance then how come it looks so attractive? After all one can't imagine a racing car carrying extra weight just for looking stylish. The fact is that when an engineered component delivers a high performance the quality of the performance affects how we perceive the looks of the product. And when the performance is great the component looks great as well.

That is not to say high performance products do not look stylish until they perform. Some products look pretty stylish just by their contours. And considering it is technology that has given them that shape that is truly a double benefit. Take for example car spoilers. You would have seen them as fixtures that protrude at the rear end of a car. For a technical component they are one of the most visible ones and immediately make the car look special.

But of course style is just an add on benefit, the real benefit of the car spoiler is to give you a better ride at high speeds. So how does it do that? A car spoiler generates a downward force that pushes the car to the ground. This force increases as the speed of the car increases and at high speed when the car could jump off the road when the toad is less than perfect this force is quite large and pushes the car back on to the road.

But you may ask don't the spoilers add extra weight? Yes they do but the weight is not much specially if you opt for carbon fiber car spoilers which are light but very strong.
