Ha false logic on several levels. Firstly - frictional
losses are small in comparison to aerodynamic drag -
which is far greater at the 100 km/hr, which in the
end make the conclusion actually far more exciting !

Anyway, Michel - you are being unaccustomedly negative
in light of the "French Connection" to Negre... or do
you hear rumors that this company may not be on
up-and-up ?
