Less drag on the straights so quicker, less downforce on the corners (remembering that downforce doesnt really take effect until your at 60-70mph anyway), so its a bit of a win/win situation (points out that early spec c's ran without a spoiler or with a low level spoiler 
)

Steve - dont do it !
IMHO You will lose the back end going down into Duffas Dip and straight into the gravel.... backwards.
Less drag on the straights but no noticeable difference at KH really.
There was a video of the RC Evo that lost its rear spoiler at KH - should change your mind.

Next time you are on a motorway look at the rear spoiler in the rear view mirror. See how much it is flexing etc.
There was a vid of a guy in the USA who's spoiler broke and he didn't know. Going down a straight the back end went all light and next thing you see the car going side ways on a straight ending up on it's roof etc.

Knew someone who removed his for drag racing. He found the car was awful on the motorway wandering all over, let alone on a track. He put it back on.
