I was just wondering what the specs for these cars are. Specifically the weight, top speed, etc. thanks -Colt
.398 CD as I recall. I have a German aerodynamic book that also lists the frontal area, but I can't place my hands on that book right at the moment.Dan0myte said:
BTW, does anyone have coefficient of drag numbers on the GT?![]()
A good question. Here are the listed top speeds for European-spec Opels, otherwise the same as US cars. (ps, I say 'listed' because there will always be some dispute as to the accuracy of a given car's speedometer, or the true power output of a well-tuned engine vs. a crappy running one, road inclination, wind speed, etc). I have exceeded these listed speeds with US-spec cars as have many other people, but not by a huge margin, at least not with a stock engine (points, Solex, etc).madhatterpdc said:How does the GT shape stack up against other Opels?
A little off topic, but since we're talking aerodynamics....Paul said:3. Air flow over the skin (skin friction) yes this includes the underside,
