Default S2000 Pace Car

For those of you who dont venture over into the photo forum - here's a couple of photos of the S2000 pace car used in Montreal for one of the F1 support races

I wonder if the additional spoiler provides any extra downforce or if it's just for show?

Yes - I assumed Beardie was on about the one on the boot?

I've never liked the hi-line boot spoiler.

Also just noticed it doesn't have "honda" on the front wing?

Do Yank S2000's not have the additional badge?

I removed mine (first mod ).

Why didn't they use this as the safety car during the F1 race. Much better looking/more interesting than that tacky old Merc they always roll out.
