Wind tunnel tests are used to determine the wing profile shape that produces the most lift with the least drag, so at least some of wing design is useful as a model for an aerodynamic vehicle. A vertical wing shape as a trailing edge to the RV would be ideal, however it would be far too long.
Have you considered an aerodynamic trailer?
