Race Car Aerodynamics, Joseph Katz, 1995. This book, mentioned before in various postings, is mostly directed at racing and so emphasizes down force, but the basic aero stuff is useful.

Thanks Steve! Road Vehicle Aerodynamics is a good one.I used stuff out of the 1st edition in college for the aeroVWvan project.Haven't seen the Katz book,however there's probably a lot I haven't seen now.Every book seems to offer something unique.
