why do you think the car went from getting light at 150 to settling down at a higher speed???
612 rwhp and 585 ft

Not sure.. guess it was trying to decide if it should sqaut down or fly away.. squat won.. thankfully -- Others said the same thing a little squirm at 150-160 and then back stable.

They start getting a little squirrely above 150mph don't they? Makes you start thinking of lug nuts and wheel bearings at those speeds.LOL
Yea, you think "Did I torque those bolts down?" "So, what's my plan if a front tire unloads???" "Hope a wild turkey doesn't run into the road!" lol
