pull it?

An article about the Ford Shelby GT 500 Mustang reported that all the SVT nose mods were directed towards stability between 155 mph,and 200 mph as well as directing more cooling air into the heat exchangers of the bigger engine.
In addition,the low splitter would restrict the air's access to the under body,developing downforce,balanced so as not to lift the rear.
The mods happened to cut drag a small amount (no measurement was offered)but the premise was stability,not drag reduction.
I'd vote with the 'leave it all on ' crowd.
