duck tail or none?

[makaio]

JW,
My car came with the a front spoiler and no tail as well. I didn't notice how squirley it was untill I put a Duck-tail on my car. It's know much more planted at speed. I don't really notice the difference though untill I hit 70 mph or more.

I had always thought the lower-speed (i.e. less than 75mph) instability was due to the problems these cars exhibit in crosswinds. Now I wonder.

Love that ducktail though. Pedestrians beware!

I just got a fiberglass ducktail last week. I'll be installing it soon, so I'll keep you posted on it's benefits.

I know it will upset some people that I have a quack tail on a SC, but i like the clean looks.

Matt,

I've also been mulling about adding a ducktail to my SC, wondered if it would look good with the impact bumpers. Please post (or send) pics when you've finished with the installation.

Cheers!
