I decended the Siskiyou Pass in neutral from a rolling start. The corners got hairy.

Unfortunately, inclines will skew the input data if we concentrate only on going uphill or downhill.
Been thinking to rewrite the coastdown equation to make the constant term a function of lift, but it may make simultaneously solving for C(d) and C(rr) impossible. Right now i simply just do not know.
Heh, maybe i could divert myself with measuring oversteer in a Suzuki Swift or something...
