Alright I stumbled on some old footage and uploaded to Utoob.
The gopro is on the right side positioned more towards the quarter window.
I put a few comments in but what do I know.
I do know there is a special appearance by another member of the Detomaso
family featured at the end ;-)

Just tilt your head a little to the right ;-)
I don't know if I proved anything after looking at the little yarn
pieces flapping around at 120mph
but my untrained eye tells me there is fur shur air moving towards the
back of the car at the gill surface!
Anyway I had fun doing it. Let me know if the video/link doesn't work
and I'll resend another corny version already on Utoob.
Good luck on the project.
