I can' wait to see them.

Just post them in a form like this: http//Blahblahblah-dot-com
and we can do a qiuck copy/paste/correct.

After you get to five posts, go back and edit out the -dot-.

Thanks for the info from people who want to sell us vortex generators. Glad they work for you. I think you will find a wide, deep, and fast moving river of skepicism on this web site regarding these devices. It is widely known that on certain shaped autos, these may do a bit of good. They are certainly not a aerodynamic fix all for all vehicles. If you wanna play trout and swim upstream in this river, good luck.

Used Airtabs on our car (had a partial sponsorship from them a few years ago), watched air flow (water) as we raced this past weekend.....did not seem to do what I was hoping. ...wanted to keep airflow tight to interact with rear spoiler for downforce. Need further testing.
