Sounds like a great idea Mychailo! :-)

Actually, AmazonParrot in my town owns a 'spoilerless' ebony '92 LS-L like SVXRide. He also has a video camera and can take pics of our cars as we drive along the highway.

A trick the Motortrend guys used was to stick thin 'streamers' along the back edge of the roof (each about 4-5ft in length) and watch the way they flowed when the different Evo versions were at speed. I may also try this little trick...

Should provide some neat pics - and give us some interesting comparisons of the airflow on a 'be-spoilered' vs 'spoilerless' SVX.
