Arguing from a position of knowledge has never been your strong suit. Pity!
As if not being out in the real would, or being a 22 year old graduate student means your research is not valid, SAE papers are often written by manufacturers, research papers are peer reviewed. It doesn't matter what age or who wrote the paper.

"How did you calculate those figures without a complete pressure map of the cars in question? You know as well as anyone here that drag force on a three-dimensional body cannot be calculated from a few centerline pressures, and Julian has never claimed such."

aerohead here is doing what is known as argument from authority, believing he is the authority here and gets upset if anyone challenges it. I think Vman455, that because it comes from aerohead that is evidence enough of its truth, but maybe only in one persons mind.
