There used to be a dude who had one he pulled on a truck. 0 yaw only though iirc.
We can get you in at A2 if you want to make the drive up, PM for details as we're putting together some aero testing details right now

Thank you for your post. I’ve often admired your input
I like to travel
Where abouts are you located please?

OP, put in a little effort and do a Google search for A2. It's not that far from you, and its not where DD is.

A2 is just northeast of Charlotte North Carolina. It’s worth the drive.

As another Floridian I say it’s worth the drive.

There are only 3 tunnels in the US anymore that do decent testing, unless I am forgetting one. A2, San Diego, University of Washington. ERO sessions in LA, somewhere in the Northeast, and occasionally Colorado Springs are also good and are probably better if you are working on positional changes.

The Indy car tunnel here in Indianapolis also offers testing for cyclists (although I have heard it is expensive):

(BTW, if anybody has any interest in combining wind tunnel testing at the above facility with physiological testing, LMK. I can probably hook you up with the latter.)

Thank you for the heads up
What is field testing please?
Re: Any wind tunnels in central FL for bike test [RBR]

Field testing is method of aerodynamic testing out on your own local roads as opposed to traveling to a wind tunnel. The benefits are that is accessible to everyone no matter where they are they just need to find a suitable location and day to do it on. You also get to test the way you actually ride versus on a trainer in a tunnel. The downside is takes some practice, learning and an overall greater time commitment.
