I read that only 1% or 2% of the drag of the front wheel of a roadster or lakester is due the foreward speed at the top .

I can't support what I will say next but the wake created by an open wheel has to be responsible for more than one or two percent drag. Wake and turbulence is the primary cause of high Cd in open wh

I came across what I quoted about the minor effect that rotation has on the drag of an open wheel at this review of the book "Aerodynamics of road vehicles" http://rds.yahoo.com/S=2766679/K=%22aerody

Interesting--So if an open wheel car moves fast enough you could get a sonic boom from the top of the tires? Lance When you think of the the Saw at

I see the reference you quoted in a review about the book. However, nowhere does it authenticate the statements by either data or analysis. This is what I was talking about taking things out of conte

Joe, you could figure this out! The bottom of the tire contacts the surface so it is at zero speed at any instant. The axle is at the forward velocity of the vehicle. The top of the tire is at twice

Kinda like walking huh? You only move when your feet are touching the ground. How fast does a "track"move around the drive sprocket on a tracked vehicle? jack

I would like to clarify a misconception that may have been left per Mayf's comments on the book review. The book is about vehicles aerodynamics and not bicycles as Mayf implied. The reviewer is Nick

I would like to simplify what I got out of the book review. Essentially, a wheel is a moving body pushing through the air like any other object. Whether it is rotating or not, as an object, it has a
