Yup,I may have to go faster next time. I could not believe the stability during testing neither.
I also aborted one of the runs due to a truck coming out of the woods in front of me. Had to turn around,go again.
A few years back when I did a Kamm back for my 94 mazda protege,(sedan)I could FEEL it hurting driving to my coasting hill! And then sure enough the MPH numbers did not lie when doing the A,A-B,B so took it right off. that was steady 2-3 MPH worse than rolling without it.(same testing site)

Haha that's funny and probably true!
About the grillblocks and airdams,I'm already sporting a little lawn edging,some plastic and some foam on the front:
(had to cut vertical slits on the airdam to allow flexing on contact)
Also I will take all the 'ballast' out of the car to make it as light as possible for next testing!
