Does anyone know what DC numbers might be reasonable to expect or should I say attainable by an amatur builder without the aid of a wind tunnel for a style similar to Jack"s Nebulas Theroem II or III

Realisticaly .18 to.20. There are some better numbers out there, but without a tunnel its pure guess work. say attainable by an amatur builder without the aid of a wind tunnel for a style similar to

Good question. I'd like to know the answer to that question, too. Has anyone ever had any experience with any of the existing computer programs that do aerodynamic analysis? Maybe there is an area th

The EZ-Hook two wheeled streamliner is AERODYNAMICS FRONTAL AREA, 3.62 SQ. FT., DRAG COEFFICIENT .1007, so frontal area isnt everything, problem is we dont have wind tunnels to get the drag number do

I think that program may have a glitch in the "rolling resistance" module. Try varying onlt tire-pressure inputs and see if the results make any sense. (Like, from 70 to 90psi). Russ mack /// /// la

I think there is a glitch in the rolling resistance for the same reason. I sent an Email to Bruce Bowling and he said he got the formula from a graph that only went up to 45 psi and he interpolated
