air brake

On three occasions,trekking west in the CRX,entering Chama,New Mexico from the east in the wee hours of the morning,I would kick open the driver's door fully,with window up and hold it with a locked knee as I descended the grade into town at 55 mph.
I couldn't really discern any significant deceleration.
It's funny what sleep deprivation will do to aero-holics.
