Tuft testing

This article used to be paid access only, if I'm not mistaken. Looks like a free for all now:



http://autospeed.drive.com.au/cms/A_108656/article.html

Hopefully they'll re-publish the next parts freely as well.

Aero Testing Part 2

I have been impressed with the work I have seen done at AutoSpeed.

They seem to have a good grasp of what they are trying to accomplish and make it easy to understand.

I think I have additional parts of this story, will post them later.

The extra parts are free too. But the navigation on it all can be kind of tough.

Very very good article.

Thanks guys!
Two good way to save these:
1) save as html {or]
2) Highlight the article itself with pics - not the web page border etc. etc. Then copy and paste into a word processor document and save that.

The "Printer Friendly" link wasn't as good as the word processor method, it bunched all the pics at the top of the first page.

I'll post pictures of my '93 Civic hatcbacks tuft test when I get around to it later.
I would post the video, but I would have to block out my number plate frame by frame .... which while I'm at it I'd like to ask ..... why DO people ( and magazines ) block out the number plate ?
Can people get some kind of classified info about you from your plate ??
