The drag coefficient must be multiplied by the effective frontal area to create the real aero drag.

no problem just felt like being a bit of a bellendFifth ace wrote:NIce, thanks. Sorry I wasn't more specific but this is a Nissan forum after all...
the formula is Drag=Cd*Afrontal*Velocity^2remember that you will need to convert velocity to the relevant system.
