Conversely, if we want to know where the air is coming from that is entering the intercooler we plant a seed back there and trace it forward. The body is also broken into discrete panels so that force measurements can be taken and a contribution of down force and drag for each component, doors, hood, Mickey Mouse antenna ball, etc. can be assessed.
