I guess there is such a thing as too much downforce. Lol!

Whoops!

Lol, I've always questioned the huge rear spoiler on the Porsche, which also happens to hava a rear mounted engine!
I guess Porsche noted this rear biased balance and tried to compensate with front louvers.
Quite an embarrassing fail on Porsches behalf :/

jees that thing turns in well and stays so composed... surely just a stiffer suspension set up will cure this problem...

Not sure how this wasn't detected during testing.

I'm missing something.
