What are the speed restrictions specifically? Somehow I was thinking you could reach 30-mph easily unassisted in that fainter-green one.
I like the model is it yours ?

It really needs to be a tear-drop though in plan view as well , slope to rear should be 12 degrees to get optimum benifit but it does not need to taper to a point as long as it is cut off with a sharp edge much like it looks now [ search Karma back ]
