I have only had one bad experience drafting. I-94 is hilly in spots and the driver kept slowing down. I thought it was because of his load, no when he exited he let me know how angry he was. I stopped doing it for quite awhile. I don't agree with parasitc lose due to drafting either. Years ago at the proving grounds we were testing chains for lube in automatic trans. Opels were the test vehicle. I was a test driver at the time (very boring job) The test consisted of driving 100mph for the entire shift. Cars were ballasted to keep speeds down to 100. Well get 8 test drivers and add boredom, and you get some serious drafting going on! So much for their 100mph top speed. Long story short the lead car never needed gasing before any of the other cars. Also wouldn't the lead car in NASCAR have to fill sooner?
