"with four connected to the rear, providing a stunning 2,300 pounds of downforce."

Huh? Am I so old that I don't get what rear downforce is? Race cars want down force in the front to keep them from flipping over or going airborne. Is this another stupid writer who doesn't know what torque is? I'm confused.
