I'm really dense, because I'm not understanding what you guys are saying about how that air pressure affects the Cd of a car. ( If at all )
If you have two cars with an identical Cd*, but one has a blunt nose, how does the larger area of high pressure at the front of the nose affect the car ?
From what I gather, it has an effect on handling, but what negative effects are there ?
( *for example the LS400 and the new Corvette, both at .26 Cd if I remember correctly - nevermind the larger fontal area of the LS400, I'm just talking of Cd here. )
