How Can Physics Improve Race Car Efficiency and Fuel Consumption?

[Reaver]

Ï had not the slightest idea there was even a cool place to learn about science and physics and...truth! I'd usually just "Google"it and read Wikipedia. One of the main things I would like to learn about would be air pressure or flow, air density and maybe some rotational mass. So let's say in laments terms, the physics of race cars or the theory behind not going to Pep Boys (I don't anyway) to make older cars more efficient in fuel consumption and have a positive performance outcome.
