Mike,

My bad, I misinterpreted what you were saying.

I would love to go for the LSR but along with quite a few of my other dreams
$$$ required preclude them from making them real.

One comment though - I would use a fully equipped GMC motorhome, not a
gutted Transmode.

Regards,
Rob M.

Agreed.

I never claimed anything attached to a GMC (OEM or not) created turbulence
of the correct size, shape or location to help MPG or performance.

I was just trying to point out that not all turbulence was bad... even
though most of it that we encounter is NOT helpful.

I do not need to go back and read the article... I pointed you at it and you
read it for me! :twisted:

I had read a little on the subject in the past, when I had a bit of time.
_IF_ I was interested in going for a land speed record, I would be
collecting, reading and studying everything I could find on airflow
characteristics... including vortex generators.
