[QUOTE="LouBoyd, post: 305645, member: 9253"] I'm certainly not proposing a "LouBoyd BC". You say "that data will never be avaialble." Why not? There's under 100 kilobytes of information for a complete drag table from 0 to 4000 fps in 1 fps increments . That's about like a single still photo on the web. A lot less is needed to be much closer to reality than any single number BC can possibly be. The data would not be practical to publish on paper but it would be easy to download the files from a manufacturers website. I don't expect every manufacturer would buy the equipment to do the tests, but only a few test locations (maybe only one) is all tthat would be needed. [/QUOTE]
