There have been several recent postings on the late 1970's and early 1980's work NASA did at out at Dryden. It's information like this which investigates things outside an idealized 3D shape which I find most useful to our DIY backyard applications on real world vehicles.

One of many NASA/Dryden PDF's posted in the forum:
