I was thinking about my comment today and that I was being a grouchy meanie. Sorry!
No I don't know the numbers, but yeah vehicle aero tests, even at full scale are very doable. CFDs probably sufficient too. You said you're a formula fan iirc, so that's probably something you hear about plenty.
I thought you were very polite and respectful, no worries.
I only know enough about aerodynamics to understand that I don't actually know shit. I think most racing fans are in the same boat as me.
I'd love to learn more, and that's really all that I was asking for.
