Is this why you had 5-6" rear spoiler years ago?

Understood Chuck, and at about 180 MPH the rear of the Pantera will lift
off due this effect but not the front because of the downward pressure
from the frontal hood area. An aluminum front hood will actually collapse
inward at about the same speed.
