Who was “ amateur aerodynamics?”

Idk if anyone has seen this blog, but it does have some helpful tips and info, but it also has the creator taking a lot of shots at users on this forum. Apparently he was very active on here once

https://www.amateuraerodynamics.com/

Some good educational info for people just getting into car aero, but also a lot of ego boasting about himself and also insulting the forum. Who was the guy?

With out looking probably Julian edgar, taking shots at aerohead.
https://ecomodder.com/forum/member-julianedgar.html
Julian was all about new data, computer modeling, new theories. Aerohead clings to the past, pushes debunked science, obsolete theories is a perfect example of why certain fields of science advance one funeral at a time.

There's no way I can leave this alone.

I'll have to read more of his blog latter, it's bedtime.

His car won the “ green Grand Prix” this year. So he’s not completely off about things. I’m sure if I super modded my Ioniq though, it would smoke his slightly modded OLD Prius lol. But Julian gave him a shout out and then his blog is up Julian’s booty
