viking, well it was an '84 so it was probably somewhere around or between the '77 Camaro & the 'typical pro stock' that you mentioned when it comes to front area {which looks like it is also right about where my '32 will be}. And when it comes to drag coef. it looks like that's where my '32 suffers. Althought I really know nothing about 'drag coef'. It seems as if that is where the '32 suffers. A .07 less for the drag coef.... Hummm, interesting, Thank you, Bill......

ps, oh I read something, somewhere about drag coef. not coming into 'play' until highter speeds? Whats up on this? Is this referring to over 50 MPH? over 25 MPH? or what??? Thank you Bill....

Most of what I have read is figured at 65 mph, so far the best was a 70 superbird...Front area 22.0......Drag Coef 0.28 and at the other end was a 18 wheeler, no front area listed but a Drag Coef of 0.60 to which 50 % of it's fuel is used to overcome this drag, no wonder we see more and more spoilers on them.


C9x,

I could'nt find anything on the 31 or 32, I would guess they would be fairly close to the 34 roadster, I'll let you know when/if I find out.
