Looks like they found that rear side panel accounts for the largest reduction in drag... I wonder how that scales down to our sizes?
If it can be scaled accurately, it seems to say that covering your rear wheels and installing side skirts to effectively lower the vehicle's lowest body point will prove very profitable in fuel savings. If the picture is any accurate representation, the skirts may be best situated at the lower lip of the wheel rim?

I'd like to think that people might open their eyes at some point... instead, I find it more and more likely that I'll just close mine.
