Has anyone seen the Pagani Zonda S? I doubt it's purely aesthetic that they have 4 tail pipes arranged in a square dead center of the height of the vehicle... not the vehicle's body height, but from the ground to the top of the roof-line, I believe.

Something about that says "high velocity flow to combat vacuum at the rear of a vortex" to me. in fact, I believe it absolutely screams it.

Having a side-exit, or even rear-side exit exhaust is a blatant waste of an aero-tool that should be utilized. Someone write congress.
