Have you expreinced drafting?

Drafting is taking advantage of the car in front of you when it comes to wind resistance. When you're driving fast (let's say at 100+ mph), you'll notice that the wind resistance is strong enough that you'd actually hear it and notice that the car's acceleration is affected by it. Just imagine when you're behind a car and you're running at 100 mph (please be careful, don't tailgate at that speed). That car is already receiving much wind resistance and your car is pretty much clear of any (if not totally cleared of resistance). Some racers take advantages of this and draft behind a car to gain more acceleration and eventually, overtake that car. Kind of rude right? After taking advantage of the less resistance, we'd overtake. But it's just the way it is. I've tried it and it is noticeable at high speeds. I tried it out with my van (at 90 mph) and it did go faster. Just be careful since the car may brake anytime. Have you tried drafting behind another car? and how fast were you going and did you feel any effect? drive safe everyone.
