 Why was the GT-40 so prone to
doing 185 MPH dados?  I assume short wheel base but it couldn't be
much shorter than some of the lsr roadsters I've seen.
******************************
Don't know a lot about aero instability. The GT40 in question had the fat,
treaded tires used for asphalt road racing. No grip and tendency to aquaplane
on the salt.
