Also, a delete may cause lift, increasing instability...either way I trust the 100's of hours and engineering expertise of the...engineers. nothing about the ZL1 is an accident.

Yeah but... Like Glen said, little effect until you're really moving. I'm only talking cosmetics here
And here's another thing I never could understand about the downforce thing - creating downforce in the back should have the effect of creating uplift in the front. I know I'm missing something on this, but every time I bring that up in these kinds of discussions, everything goes silent???
Probably has something to do with vacuum created by the front splitter and the air dam offsetting the downforce, but I've never read that.
