It would be a good choice.
*Bam's mods can come off the T-100 in short order,which would allow a 'naked' baseline comparison which we could compare to Toyota's published Cd 0.44.
*This would give us a second comparison,considering Gary's Prius.
*Bam's rig is 'short' enough to fit inside the tunnels test section.
*Since it only requires 4-minutes to do a run,other mods could be tested as well.
*A 'fake' compound windshield would be interesting.
*Tape over the Cab/Bed gap.
*Taping every seam would tell us something we don't know about 'features drag.'
*A mirror delete would be easy enough (10% of my drag!)
*Alternate mirror testing.
*'Fake' flush side glass.
*A 'fake' 100% grille block.
*Front wheel MOONs.
*Cardboard and Duct tape front skirts (CAD).
*Test with windows rolled down

I've already got some seed money.And I'd follow along,acting as roady/crew member,with my own stuff to test.It would be over a year before I was in a position to go.
Anyone else could bring a modded car or even a 'stocker' of known published Cd of which we could compare,growing our portfolio.Most of the time is spent just getting the car into the tunnel,getting it centered,and lashed down to the load cell pads.After that,any number of runs can be had in a few minutes.
