The elevation of the second filament from the floor also appears to recover to the same elevation behind the car which is a very good sign.
Not as good as the 1st-gen 1-liter car or ARVW of 1982 (Cd 0.15) but maybe less 'scary' to the buying public.I like them all.
Phil, thank you for mentioning the fact that the separation that I thought I saw was actually a separate smoke filament.
I hadn't noticed that at first .
