Yes, it should get you an answer if you could find a tunnel that has a moving floor to account for the ground effect. I'd rely on timing slips for a higher- accuracy answer. Regards, Neil Tucson, AZ

I agree with Neil! There is nothing that compares to the "Great White Dyno" to answer these questions. Tom, Redding CA - #216 D/CC

There are a couple of wind tunnels with moving floors, the only problem is that (unless they've changed them) the floors only had a maximum capability of 150 mph while the fans could blow at 220+ mph

The base is the same cross section.......the nose is the same.......if the nose is aerodynamic standard shape......the 6 degrees will be faster by aerodynamic....if both cars got still the same weigh

Sorry -- I left out a bunch of words. How about a data aq., speed sensor and a good accelerometer? The coast down numbers should be fairly accurate is there isn't much wind. Bryan

That should give you some very good data; however, timing slips are the "final authority." Regards, Neil Tucson, AZ Sorry -- I left out a bunch of words. How about a data aq., speed sensor and a goo

Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) was gone over not too long ago. I just checked the Archives and surfed back to _http://www.aerodynwindtunnel.com/index.html_ (http://www.aerodynwindtunnel.com/index
