I went into a large bookstore yesterday to kill some time and I found a relatively new book (2000) on aerodynamics. It's (translated) title is "Basic Aerodynamics of Vehicles" and it's written by Janusz Piechna of the Warsaw Polytechnical University. I looked through it and WOW!!, everything I've always wanted to know, but was afraid to look for Hucho. I've never seen Hutcho's book, but I've heard alot about it (on this site, imagine that), and this looks pretty similar. Plus, this book costs the equivalent of 10EUR (US$14), so that's a deal if I ever saw one!

Now I have a new weapon against anyone who is sceptical about my car's mods ("Read this 400-page brick and then we can continue our discussion")

:evil smirk:
