CIVIC streamlining

Here are some images of my '84 CRX project.I've made it to the 'center' configuration so far.With the kit,she can do in the 60-mpg range.From top speed testing at Bonneville and coastdown testing at the Chrysler Proving Grounds she's estimated at Cd 0.235. From Bonneville testing,almost all the benefit was from the boat tail.
If I 'complete' the project she should be in the mid-to-low teens.




If you'll mimic basjoos AeroCivic you'll be at Cd 0.17.No thinking necessary.It's technology,not theory! Mike's done all the head work for you.
