That might very well be, but it looks like it's going way to much straight upwards instead of acting like a spoiler... it only looks like a flat plate. however it's just a show.

I'm not that into 'real' automatic transmissions, but isn't new automatics like 7G always mechanically locked but not when it shifts gears..? But I can't comment 'the high stall torque converter', don't find in dictionary!
