Although I do not for one minute pretend to be as brilliant as some of these guys, you'll get an idea:

Information Is Beautiful | Ideas, issues, knowledge, data - visualized!

I'd like to group some of Hucho (?) and other's findings on one page as much as possible, just to serve as a good starting point for personal modifications on your own vehicle (so mostly aerodynamic stuff).

Graphs, images, formulas etc...

I suppose it would be a good place to start with explaining the aerodynamic work of the 1930's first and then moving onto modern aerodynamic nuances.

But like I said, I welcome the help of- or I'd be delighted to help- the more knowledgeable folk out there in creating such a graphic to benefit this site.

I'm assuming this graphic won't make much sense to someone who's just stepped onto the site, but would make a lot of sense once's he / she has read the part of why aerodynamic conversions will most likely benefit your FE.
