I'm not sure I'd agree that your angles are too aggressive. The tufts seem well behaved. Most of these early calculations have incorporated some assumptions which may have been slightly overly conservative.

On a slightly different note, have you done an underbelly at the back of the car? Do you plan to do tufts along the bottom of the boattail?
