I agree but not in F1 or F! type cars as you said. Rules don't
allow.


I wrote that there are Formula One type races for cars with computer
controlled spoiler flaps..


Nope. You specified "some formula one style racers".

That's not the same as "Formula One type races" Tarver.
*****
Airflow appendages on F1 cars can not be adjusted during racing. Any
category allowing such adjustment would not be a F1 style racer.


Wrong.

Which of the following allow in-race adjustment -- F1, Champcars,
Indycars, F2000, F3000, F5000, F2, F3, F4, Barber Dodge Pro,
Formula Ford, Formula Renault, Europa Cup, Formula BMW, Formula
Holden, Formula Nippon, Formula Nissan, Formula Palmer Audi, Fran-Am
1600, Formula Russell, Formula Vee, Star Mazda, Formula F Zetec etc.


Most of those categories can have the aero package adjusted during the race,
some may even do it routinely during a pitstop like Champcars/Indycars and
to a lesser extent F1.

They are open wheelers (but so is my neighbour's quad bike).

Which of the above are F1 "style" categories?


Generally speaking F1 style categories are slicks and wings with more power
than grip.
