Questions:
  • Is the order important, i. e. attached flow and wetted areas more significant than frontal area and interference drag?
  • With an open wheel vehicle (my favorite use case) is the interference drag between the wheel/tire and the body or is it between the axle/suspension/steering linkage and those?

How well would a Dymaxion [Omni-directional Transport] with a boxed cavity truncation fare against these guidelines?
