Default poor man's wind tunnel testing?
https://www.s2ki.com/forums/showthread.php?...&threadid=43153

i just recently purchased $33 (leaf) blower that blows at a claimed 140MPH. i figure we can find a nice and calm underground parking area, have one person smoke a cig (or a pipe, bong, cigar, whatever), and the other blow the exhaled smoke over the surface of the car and simulate wind tunnel testing? figure we'd be able to see how the air flows over the car

it's just an idea.
