i would like to give it a shot if it sounds like a realistic figure.
i also like the boat tail figure improvement of " 22.6%. At aft rear fairing length being 25% of its full length vehicle model drag factor is reduced by 16.1%."
i am new to all this so if i am missing something, let me know.

It's real.They're duplicating experimental research conducted in the mid-1930s and late-1960s,all proven.
The thing about the screen though,is that it only delivers these numbers at zero-yaw.Once you get into a crosswind (which is most of the time) the performance falls off.
