With a few slight modifications (remove those protective perimeter bars) this looks fairly aerodynamic.

I'm sure this has been posted before, just never seen a color photo of it before personally.

This one has potential, cover up those spokes, re-rout the exhaust pipes....etc.

If nothing else, a low "A" in the CdA calculation, although the rolling resistance of that rear tire may negate it all.

Other images in that link/page go into the un-aerodynamic thread.
