At the moment, my opinion is that, since research on rotating wheels has demonstrated one phenomena in one wind tunnel, and the opposite in another, that , NO ' all current aero tech' consensus exists within the aerodynamic community, with respect to predicting what one might experience given any specific vehicle.
The burden of proof to prove otherwise falls on Julian Edgar.
Which brings us back to MetroMPG's admonition about limiting any claim with respect to a case-specific basis.
