Let us know how that works out on your car.
Aerohead doesn't know what Coanda Effect means when applied to road car aerodynamics, won't look at the references I have given, denigrates a professional aerodynamicist who uses the term correctly, and then goes off in his own world of irrelevant musings.

Not very helpful, to put it mildly.
