Biggest Irony in all of that is the model name of one of the cars on the
'worst' list; Morgan Aero 8! That's pretty funny.
Biggest surprise was the F1 car. That just does not jive with common sense
and logic. Seems to me that they have horribly tiny frontal areas and
there's no flat / blunt surfaces. Maybe I just figured it out; the ground
effects intentionally abut a whole bunch of air, with the resulting force
of
that air pushing the car downward in order to keep the car on the ground.
Hmmmmmmm, I could be right!?! In effect these cars need the huge HP to
utilize the air to keep them stuck down! Can you imagine how fast these
buggers would be with aero aids that allow them to slice thru the wind?
