As the ambiant temp has gone up I have had to enlarge the opening for the cooling air to the radiator. I have also rounded the upper edge on the rear section to help reduce the side wind effects. I now believe that the upper section of the rear body work should be a semi-circle in order to minimize the affects of cross winds.
