Drag coefficient for a 122 120-130

I actually used this method once upon a time, in conjunction with detailed acceleration tests and even more formulae(don't ask... I don't remember!), to calculate a rear wheel horsepower curve over a fairly broad rpm range. Used up a half tank of gas and several hours of my precious time :) gathering the data. Ah, youth!
