The comment about needing a wing is pretty close to the front of the video, the crash when they push it too far is at the end.

If I have a 25 hp electric pancake motor at each wheel and lead-acid batteries, this should not be an issue, might even have to get out and push it once in a while. However Lithium-Ion batteries and a 100 hp electric motor at each wheel and I will want all the splitters and wings I can fit on there.
