These four are good; I might add : > Keep your speed down ... 50ish is better than 60ish! Actually, ~47 MPH is the upper limit ( before parasitic / ram air drag begins to take hold). Check classic pitot theory for more details....
Aerodynamics doesn't include pitot theory ; all cars ... dirty, clean, square, pointy, long, short ... have to penetrate the same air. Velocity rules! Aero is disturbance...pitot is penetration.
