An interesting Basic Aerodynamics article on MotoIQ.com

Basic Aerodynamics Part One: What is Aerodynamics? (http://www.motoiq.com/magazine_articles/articletype/articleview/articleid/1796/basic-aerodynamics-part-one-what-is-aerodynamics.aspx)

It covers some interesting basics for those of you who don't know much about fluid flow and what not. Obviously if your an engineer, this article isn't anything special; but most on here aren't, ha ha.

Pretty good article. Definitely have respect for Mike Kojima from lots of the articles written in SCC back in the day.

Not a bad article for those who want a really quick intro to aerodynamics. Too bad it's not all that easy. =[

Great find OP

Just one more reason to keep checking back at MotoIQ. Generally a solid bunch of articles happening on that site, and I'm a BIG fan of the grass-roots focus they're taking with it.

Never really read SCC though, so I'm not sure how it compares.

MotoIQ is definitely on my list of daily checks when online, lol. SCC isn't even missed because of it!

Mike did a great job on the article. I have some projects that are under way for GST and FXMD that are under wraps until opening season. So i promised to put something together for him then. He asked me to write an aero article this month, but i have been sick, with sick kids and have had complete writers block.
:duh:

This is a valuable article. The contents in here are meat of a college undergrad class in ground vehicle aerodynamics.
