Aerohead,
I was planning on following the AST-II top profile and the AST plan taper profile (4:1 aspect ratio?) you had previously shared, unless you think there is a reason to use a different profile on this vehicle.
Thanks for sharing the VW picture, that is very helpful for designing the tire fairings. I am a bit surprised by the size of the leading faring for the rear wheels. I am also surprised by how much wider the fairings are than the wheels/tires. This may be way too complicated, but I had considered using a “U” shaped aft tire fairing with an open back and ducting some engine bay air into the aft tire fairings to “fill the wake” once the fairing ended.
