But if we're dealing with models, that changes things. First, if you test a scale model in a small wind tunnel, you need to scale the viscosity of the fluid, too. That's why some scaled-down tests are done in heated water.
Second, how accurately does the scale model represent the full-sized car? These models seem pretty good, but certainly not perfect.
Professors like it when you acknowledge and understand the limitations of your work.
Btw, I couldn't read your .docx. My copy of Word 2000, with the .docx compatibility filters, says it's not a valid file.

Dude, the scale models are on Ebay. Look at the pictures above.
Well theyre the scale models or he has really big hands !
More info would be cool.
Hope you get an "A" from the project.
So when do we get to see this translated to your full scale rides?
