Ricer wings create lift, REAL RACE CAR "SPOILERS" create as much or as little downforce as you want since they are adjustable.

psh. the 996 gt3 isnt nearly as nice as the 997 gt3. plus, 996 has the gt2, which is probably the best looking 996 in my opinion(dont like the ugly scrambled egg headlights). the gt1 was another gt car split between generations, with a 993 version, and a 996 version.
