How Does A NASCAR Wind Tunnel ACTUALLY Work? Behind The Scenes in an Official Testing Facility!  @Stapleton42

In this video we visit Gary Eaker at Aerodyn Wind Tunnel in Mooresville NC. I realized one day that with all the mentions of wind tunnels we hear regularly, I really didn't know HOW they worked, how they measured things, how they are designed, etc. So I asked John Callies (the former Pontiac Motorsports manager) if he knew anyone that could get us an inside look at a wind tunnel. He connected us with Gary who was also a former General Motors employee in the aerodynamics dept. Before starting the Aerodyn tunnel, Gary was the head Aerodynamicist at Hendrick Motorsports!
