2008 Mitsubishi Aerodynamic Paper of Lancer X

The "Vortex Generator" post got me snooping around Mitsubishis tech papers for more pearls of wisdom from the usual suspects over there and I found this.

Some kinda cool stuff in here. I in particular like the vortex generation behind the C-pillar.

I did a site search and didn’t find this referred to, so I thought I'd put it in here.

Note to Moderators: (I'll edit this out once I get a good answer)
Is there a reason why this paper isn't listed as part of a "Knowledge Dump" type sticky? Shouldn't there be something right on top with this paper and others like it for easy reference? Just wondering.

All the principles discussed in this Mitsu paper can be found reading the papers linked in this sticky.

ChazInMT -

Thanks. I hadn't seen that one. I thought you were referring to the 2004 Evo paper on vortex generators :

Research on Aerodynamic Drag Reduction by Vortex Generators

Both papers have Naoki Hamamoto in their author list. Maybe he's their main aero-dude. Gotta find an Evo to stare at.
