A question for those who know such things. I've been thinking yet again about the ill effects of a tapered fairing... that lovely classic shape which has the unfortunate effect of flicking you around if the wind off a truck or around a building hits unexpectedly.
How about the flat sided fairing, like a pyramid , wider at the front but with the leading edge low tapering up but the maximum width at that point then coming back to a reduced dimension at the extreme back?
This is rather hard to explain but my scanner is dead, a drawing would be a better way of explaining.
This photo of the Dome racing car was the inspiration for the idea. Flat sides ,thus no lift !
No side lift is what I'm after.
