Default Wanna know why the integra craps out on top end?

If you've ever wondered why the car gets really sluggish on top end, especially over 100 mph.....Ive posted some thoughts about drag coefficient. Nothing really important, but it gives you guys a good idea, cuz i always used to wonder why the hell my car sucked *** up top (before i entered the darkside).

math

Yea aerodynamic losses are huge, the new NSX went down by like .02 in drag co-efficient and it like raised its top speed by an impressive amount (can't remember, it was like 6 issues ago in a mag)
