Luigi showed up at Bonneville about a decade ago with his cyclopian truck loaded with eleven LSR attempt vehicles.The tractor-trailer had a Cd 0.38 graphic on it.And the truck ran in the high 80-mph range with a small engine on the salt.
There were quite a few HPVs and some were reported with very low Cds.And they weren't all freakish looking.
Colani's a mess.And its a good thing that the Universe is expanding,it will take all that room to contain his ego,but some of his stuff IS kinda scientific-looking.
