It looks like you'll have quite a stretch to the bars from the car seat. You may want a secondary steering head to move the bars closer to the rider. But moving the seat forward to reduce the rearward weight bias would probably be a good idea.
A Hossack FFE (funny front end) would let the nose be much lower with a shallower slope. But that is not something many people would be able to construct.
I think for modern day-to-day traffic it is better to focus on acceleration and not top end. Very low HP may allow a high top speed with good aeros but if it takes all day to get there you are probably going to have to watch that someone doesn't barge you for holding up their forward progress (even if it is just to the next stop light). Reasonable HP with low weight and good aeros is probably going to make for a more practical vehicle.
cheers,
