Like I said, my son's whale tail equipped SC is so, so much more stable than my car. It does "wiggle" its tail every now and then, but I've never caught myself looking out the wing window while traveling "straight" exiting turn one at Pacific.

That might be a fun thing for a track day actually. I still have my old decklid with tea tray on hand--maybe I just pull the tea tray and swap it out at a track day. Maybe before I try it with the spoiler on so I don't get used to all of that extra grip. ;)

I was actually looking for some wind tunnel testing of a classic 911 the other day, would be interesting to see the smoke forms.

See those little streamer looking things? This was before smoke forms
