I agree, but keep in mind that recently taken wind tunnel pictures and videos of +50 year old cars would not be considered research other than in a historic contex anyway.

I think this falls into the "Art" category, similar to having a stone wall, castle, abandoned factory or pretty girl next to the car.

Some of these images are just meant to be cool.
