With the thousands and thousands of cumulative CS driving miles between owners, I was wondering if you've ever felt the downforce of the rear spoiler while driving.
It's like a tugging feeling--and you can feel the rear of the car move down a bit. A similar spoiler was tested at Bonneville for a magazine in 1969, and it pretty much didn't kick in until about 110 mph--noticed by the test equipment.
However...if you're going 70 into a 30mph headwind, you could feel it with the net wind force of 100mph..
Your personal experiences--at higher speeds--would be appreciated.
Have any of you driven a stock '67 or '68 Mustang coupe, and then can tell the difference with a GT/CS--by the spoiler?? Do you get any sense of greater stability through the spoiler while driving?
