The "Interesting Reading" thread
Hi folks,
I had a bit of an idea while browsing today - I think we could use a Sticky thread where we can post little snippets of interesting articles regarding aerodynamics. I'll edit this first post to add articles as people suggest them.
Let me kick things off:
2012 Mercedes B-class low-drag champion
Research paper: Reducing Aerodynamic Drag and Fuel Consumption
Drag reducing details on Project Sipster
Drag reduction of pickup truck using add-on devices
Vehicle aerodynamics Michigan University

From first article, this is the best image I could find on the roof spoiler they talk about.
2012 Mercedes-Benz B-Class - Roof Spoiler Wallpaper
To my eyes, the Ford Fiesta did a better job of things, and it's a smaller car.
