Anyone notice when they actually compared it to the 'forward' car, (which as 924CarreraGTP mentioned, is an extreme waste of airtime and funding), they compared it to an S or S4 (don't remember) with SPOILERS?????????? Uh, did these guys attend preschool? Spoilers have their advantages, but NOT for aerodynamics. This gives the 'control' car a HUGE disadvantage. Not to mention the 'control', is a US car while their worthless experiment, as mentioned, not only a RoW proven by the sidemarkers, but likely a Euro as shown by the existence of a rear foglight.

I mean, how can they possibly "BY CHANCE" purchase a Euro car IN THE U.S. of a vintage right in the middle of the fuel crisis, where U.S. cars were anemic compared to RoW??????

Um, not to mention the difference in airflow under the car, through wheelwells, mirrors, etc. etc. between their experiment and the regular car.

They rigged this thing from the start. Waste of airtime IMO.

The fact that their rigged experiment still LOST proves that Porsche, at the time, is miles thinking!

Oh and anyone ever watch the early episode where they test """"""traction"""""" between FWD, RWD, and 4WD cars in the snow? Don't get me goin on that one.....

I don't think any of these guys could've passed ELEMENTARY school physics.

And these guys are on TV. Congratulations, stupid.

.....I think I'll stop now! Got out my rant for the day!
