Splitter theory. Some racing bents put the splitter in front as well. At a 40mph coast a front splitter is worth about 1.5 mph. You will probably experience some sail effect which can be real fun.
Next step is to build a small sub frame to hold the coroplast from your body and get inside. Leave it partially open for your feet and have it come up high enough for shoulders to be in while in the drops. If you can build it small enough with a decent fineness ratio you may get another 5 mph cruising speed.
