Just one question... how would an aerodynamic high pressure zone form at the base of your windshield when the car is NOT moving?


So yea, I guess it "vents heat" when you're stopped, but when do you want more cooling when your car is stopped and less when it's moving? Engine running hot as you're creeping to the local hard parking spot?
