    Yes, and always from the same side on the track. It's a special case. You can lower the drag by moving the drive to the best side if your crosswind is always coming from the same side, but you can't necessarily reduce it further by adding another drive train on the other side.

    If you want to test your hypothesis against people who actually know about this stuff, take it to the Aerodynamics thread so that the Porn people don't have to put up with too much chat.
