Here is how me and basjoos did it -> Measure the drag coefficient of your car
Uh-Oh BabyDiesel...I started to read that article and my brain began to explode. I'm afraid I have more capacity for painting than I do testing.

However, your welcome to come and take the VX out while I'm working one day or out with the family. I'm completely fine with it, really. I'm very curious myself. I'm just not scientific enough to put together an accurate report.
