Fairings

If you can get access to Sighard F.Hoerner's book 'Aerodynamic Drag',he has some tables depicting different aircraft wheel fairings and wing tanks which mysteriously appear on solar racers and record cars.
Simple 'canoe' fairings are always a safe bet as long as they have some fillet at the attachment intersection.
