No doubt the front end is catching wind, and the high bubble roof will suck up, also.

I think some guys not noticing this have a Heavier 35i which would shift more weight to front to hold it down.

Next tire set will be .5 inch lower to ground (225/40r18 instead of 225/45r18) which will help a tiny bit, and maybe more acceleration.
Thanks. I may consider doing the same thing with my next set of tires. BTW I have noticed that the camber on my rear tires is significantly more than my front tires. It appears that the rear tires angle inward at the top while the front tires are straight up and down.
