stabilizator, spojler Explanation: Reč je o stabilizatoru, koji je u našem rečniku možda poznatiji kao spojler. Zapravo reč o napravi oko koje struji vazduh čime se poboljšava aerodinamika vozila, a često i njegova stabilnost. Definiciju možete videti ovde: http://www.thefreedictionary.com/air dam |

Reference: Spoiler (automotive) Reference information: A spoiler is an automotive aerodynamic device whose intended design function is to 'spoil' unfavorable air movement across a body of a vehicle in motion, usually described as drag. Spoilers on the front of a vehicle are often called air dams, because in addition to directing air flow they also reduce the amount of air flowing underneath the vehicle which generally reduces aerodynamic lift and drag. Spoilers are often fitted to race and high-performance sports cars, although they have become common on passenger vehicles as well. Some spoilers are added to cars primarily for styling purposes and have either little aerodynamic benefit or even make the aerodynamics worse. Spoilers for cars are often incorrectly confused with, or the term used interchangeably with, wings. Automotive wings are devices whose intended design is to generate downforce as air passes around them, not simply disrupt existing airflow patterns.
