Other persons suggested this technique, and it seemed to help avoid the "lurch" you get when flicking the OD switch when accelerating. I think they; /html/mgs/2003-06/msg00307.html (8,919 bytes)

They are higher off the road to start with, and presumably a lot of air can get under the front at speed.
