Perhaps devise a test where we have one car with ducts, one without, or go blocked/unblocked as in this test. Drive to a certain speed, brake hard to a stop.

Perhaps devise a test where we have one car with ducts, one without, or go blocked/unblocked as in this test. Drive to a certain speed, brake hard to a stop. Measure temperature quickly. Drive 1 mile without braking at a constant high rate of speed then coast to a stop. Measure temperature again. A significant drop with ducts and smaller drop without would indicate that they are working. Drop with both ducted and non-ducted would indicate that the cooling from centrifugal motion overrides the ducting and it is not worthwhile. Just an idea.
