Frontal Area and CD
I've searched high and low with little luck. Honda says the AP2's CD is 5% lower than the AP1. No mention of the CD nor the frontal area. Numbers vary when I googled the question. Anyone have the actual numbers?
Thanks.
Thanks.
you can probably estimate the frontal area pretty well. Take a photo of the car straight on, make a grid using the track as a reference length.
then, if you know the s2000 is drag limited stock you back calculate the Cd.
Or if you don't need to know the actual number and just want to know how much faster the car will go with X more power, than you could just use a ratio and knowing the stock power and drag limited top speed.
