ERTW, THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!
The best data I have seen on this site, bar none. And it models my experiences in the real world.
I believe the rear of the car is where the vast majority of gains can be found. Form drag is MUCH more significant then the rest of it all.
Looking at the car you modelled, you can see where the air separates at the back. In the real world, a tiny bit of side wind could easily cause the air to stay attached longer on one side, but not the other. I wonder if this could cause the car to pull to one side.
A solution would be to chop the car at the point the air trips.
FWIW, you are modelling the basic shape of the trike I am building - at least the back half!!!!!
