  Partly. It provides the effect of additional downforce, but without the
disadvantages.  Properly bled, and free of bubbles, it ionizes the
turbulent air that eddies behind SUVs. That ionized air then touches the
rolling surfaces of the tires and alters their surface molecular
structure so that they achieve a tenacious adhesion against asphalt and
concrete pavings.  The developers were pleased with the unintended
benefit that it adds no weight to the load placed on the suspension,  as
the 372.6 kg weight of the lead-lined radiation chamber is perfectly
offset by the counter-gravitaional repelling force against the earth's
iron core.  While this effect does mean that one may not drive through
older iron tunnels or over truss bridges which have overhead
reinforcements, a careful navigator can get most anywhere in the USA with
a little planning of route. Check out the article in Fluid Hysteresis
Quarterly mag, 1 April issue.
