Thanks. Makes sense. Honestly. You must have a PhD in fluid mechanics or aeronautics.

Crazy thing though.

They got paid big money for their nonsense, enough to buy any cars they want, using false representations for convenience.

 

It is Hollywood......nothing is real

 

Except for Pam Anderson's *****. Those are real.

 

I envy the Mythbusters for their great workshop and ability to access facilities like NASA's. I hope that they didn't deliberately show the model in the water tank at such a low Reynolds number for dramatic effect, and to make the 928 look bad, but can't think of any other explanation. When I think that they could have showed what the flow looks like over the hatch at highway speeds and more, to resolve the debate once and for all, I think "what a wasted opportunity".

 

Saw and touched the car today at the Ontario Science Centre. They have a Mythbusters exhibit. It was cool to see it in person among the Citroen 2CV car converted to a bike but a bit sad that they chopped up a twin distributor 16V car.
