If more downforce is asked, it comes with a price tag of higher drag and additional spoilers/wings...
and yes, the basic shape has light front at high speeds (over 180 kmh let say), anyone on autobahn has experienced this phenomena when chasing a P911T I guess :-)
Vented hood improves the matters a bit, at least for me it has worked fine (the vents/louvers must be in the front section of the hood, where the low pressure area is, not at the rear where is the M3 intake opening and people have feelings that it ventilates the engine - in reality it does the opposite).

I know with the m3 they have a front vent on the belly pan. Could something like that help or not really?
