From the drag force and power formulas,by reducing the T-100s 'signature' from 28.925,to 10.872 sq-ft is the same as reducing the Cd from 0.44,down to 0.165.
*This Cd 0.165 is in close agreement with the Cd 0.160 we get from General Motors CdA/mpg relationship.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
It does appear that we can use some of the simple relationships to 'rough-in' predictions before we begin mods.
And it looks like some of the 'vintage' numbers,published so long ago acquit themselves quite nicely even by today's metrics.Especially Klemperer's, which turn out lower than when initially published in 1922.
Thank, you, sir!
