DeTom, You mean ala Pantera Si?

I wish, but unfortunatley no. The air coming off the top doesn't reconnect at speed like on fastbacks because of the hot air coming out of the engine compartment. If you seen that film at bonneville and the wake the Pantera makes you realize it doesn't come back down until like 12 feet after the car. So you have to have the wing up about two feet higher than the roof line to get it into clean smooth air. So your wing needs to be about four feet tall. Yeah I know that looks gay, but it will hold your ass end down when it counts.
