Make this an open-wheeler and you're back to a belly tank, with it's problematic ground interactions. Better to start here:

Not quite a half-body. The bottom is flat for good ground interaction, but the top has a more Gothic than Romanesque arch. Maybe a Gaudi Parabolic arch? Wouldn't this would reduce crosswind lift and improve directional stability.
But the first image triumph is very close to ground, there aren't any ground interaction? why adding wheels will cause ground interactions? what are and how they work?
You know Gaudi? it is a very famous architect here!
The soapbox has an hexagonal shape, when seen from front, its an hexagonal "extrusion"
