And are you now acknowledging your complete error in this area, and your subsequent misleading of people here for many years on this topic?

1) separation edges are out. They were invented at the FKFS, so completely unreliable technology.
2) rear spoilers were researched at the FKFS, so they're also out.
3) optimize thrust on forward-facing surfaces. 90-degree edges at the windshield header ?
4) splitters are out. FKFS.
5) wings are out. FKFS.
6) wing capping plates. Lanchester probably got it all wrong.
7) Insight or Prius rooflines. Forget it, just more FKFS B. S..
8) Low-drag cooling systems. Wrong. FKFS.
9) If I believed in luck, I'd say 'good luck' approaching Cd 0.09.
