So, they are using air velocity to compensate for the scale of the model; not air pressure.
Thanks for the thorough report! I am looking forward to the results of their wind tunnels.

Note that the Zzipper crouch (line 6) and the Easy Rider recumbent (line 7) have the same CdA of 2.9 so you can get the benefit either way. Aero bars are quite comfortable as are recumbents.
