Car enthusiasts in the 80s: "Flames make my car faster!"
Engineers who actually studied fluid dynamics: "According to our computational models, a lobster-shaped vehicle exhibits superior aerodynamic properties."
The bottom image shows actual CFD (computational fluid dynamics) analysis of a lobster's shape, which is surprisingly streamlined. Nature spent millions of years perfecting designs we're just now discovering with supercomputers. Next time you're building a race car, consider the humble crustacean.
