I was in an engineering program in high school, and there was a question asked about why you need to continue to make trim adjustments mid-flight in order to maintain level flight in an aircraft. I remember other people being kinda stumped by the question, but I chimed in positing that the balance of the plane changes as you burn off fuel, which is a concept I learned from racing and applied to aviation. That was the right answer, and I felt so proud of being able to answer a technical question based on personal knowledge.

I've drafted behind semis before and it was incredible. Once you get within 8-12 feet or so you're golden. Barely have to touch the throttle to keep it going. That was with an old car that didn't have a fuel mileage guage but I suspected if I normally got 30 (4 cylinder accord) that I was getting 45 or so while drafting. It's like you're being pulled by the truck. Don't do it with a new car though because you're likely to get sandblasted with rock chips.

I had a small Honda CRF250L dual sport dirt bike that you had to hold the throttle all the way open to maintain speed against the wind on the highway. Got behind a big rig and you can FEEL it suck you in. Only had to hold about 5% throttle to stay in his wake. I was only doing it because the temperature was falling and my hands were at risk of suffering frostbite from the windchill.

@domicunko7 Жыл бұрын

When you're driving and some object hits your hood and it doesn't bounce off, it stays sticked because the wind you're creating from travelling through air pushes the object onto the hood. When you closely follow a.k.a. tailgate another vehicle in front of you, it blocks the wind from hitting your car while their car is pushing through wind which means that the air resistance (which is proportional to surface area and density) you face is noticeably reduced and it also creates a smooth air flow so you're able to go faster while using the same amount of energy and the object falls off (reducing total mass) and you can overtake. :)

Rally for the same reason: potential danger. Obviously F1 racing is my least favorite because due to their size, the cars seem to be moving more slowly and they actually alrrady are moving more slowly in reality, due to the excessive corners present on the tracks, so it's like watching two boeing 747's "race" to land on a runway.

Neat trick! Although if I had tried this at the wrong time yesterday, I would have been in an accident, because the guy in front of me stopped suddenly to avoid hitting deer, and I barely stopped in time even though I was following at a safe distance.

Great video and very interesting. I’ve always known about drafting, but never thought of it as a vacuum. You showed it perfectly. Two thumbs up!!

I have found that a version of side drafting works on the interstate, obviously you don’t want to get as close as nascar does, just close enough to get into that pocket of air that pulls you up and by the car next to you

@kebobs3727 Жыл бұрын

Side drafting doesn't speed you up in any way, it just slows the other car down by dumping air off your nose onto their spoiler. So it won't speed you up and won't slow down 99% of cars on the road

Was fully expecting this dude to do a 180, and then go in reverse, and switch back around in the middle of the highway. But the science is appreciated nonetheless.

People see NASCAR and think it's just a bunch of cars driving in a circle, but the reality is that they are racing in a complex and dynamic course in the invisible world of aerodynamics.

What if that truck/trailer had needed to perform a full emergency stop right as you were "drafting" (tailgating)? You'd cause a completely avoidable accident.
