It’s been awhile but I remember a thread on pro-Touring.com that was all about aerodynamics. It was a VERY, VERY long thread.
Does anyone remember it?
links?

I believe you are referring to a Ron Sutton Thread. Looks to me like all of Ron Sutton's technical threads have been deleted.

Nothing is ever gone on the internet if you know where to look though.

Kind of a shame those are gone. I suppose it's a matter of not wanting to give Ron any attention which might be mistaken for promotion or approval. Still, there was lots of really interesting stuff on those posts.

Since most of Ron's posts are still up and showing, I'm guessing Ron is the one that decided to remove those posts. I may be wrong but I'm not sure why the admin's wouldn't just unsticky them and let them run their course otherwise.

Those post really did have some good info in them, and some info Im sure that is not. Either way they are a good read.

Ah. Well, knowing knowing a little about the history suggests some reasons why he may have decided to do that.

I'm sure there's nothing on those threads that won't reestablish itself here on the board.
