No Porsche testing, sadly. Some road cars but mostly racecars and aircraft. We did the tunnel work on the Ford GT some years ago.

In my ski racing days I was able to use a wind tunnel in Ft Collins, Co in an attempt to find the best aerodynamic position. Good fun, but I wasn't expecting the wind burn my face got that day.

WHOA! that's awesome! I'm just about to graduate with a BS in ME and was watching Fantasy Factory, and right after seeing that clip went on to find out what company that was. Very cool! Small world

kra993tt,
Where in fort collins is there a wind tunnel? Is it large enough to fit a car? I live in Loveland and would love to check it out.
Chris,
Any chance you could get an old classmate some tunnel time if I where to bring my car out?
