Jim,I'm hoping Neil Blanchard can help out on this one.I may be incorrect,but I thought that Aptera was using the Morelli form.
Under the X-Prize protocols all the cars were to be coastdown tested to ascertain both Cd and Rolling Force coefficient for dyno calibration.
If that information is in the public domain,then we may have access to actual ground proximity Cd values for that shape.
The we could make an appraisal of the two forms.If the Cal Tech numbers are 'hard.'
