It's a good book - I have had it for more than 25 years. The aerodynamic pressure measuring technique described in the book is to use water manometers. So try measuring one-tenth of an inch of water with a fluid manometer in a moving car. That's about the wake pressure on the Insight at 80 km/h.

The more you write about testing, the more it's obvious that you don't have a good knowledge of it.

Why don't you look at what I have posted here, learn how to do some on-road testing - and then go and do it? That will be the quickest and easiest way for you to find out for yourself that a lot of what you post here is simply wrong.
