Thanks Darin! I remember hearing something like 7* but assumed it would take some tuft testing anyway. I plan on doing strakes behind the wheels too so hopefully it's not so turbulent. Also, radii on the edges will be a must. I don't want any vortexes coming off that thing. With a little luck a boattail prototype miiiiiight get done this weekend to test out some angles. I've never done a cardboard prototype before so it should be interesting.
