I asked about the power just so you'd think about it as a parameter. 40mph is viable.

8x8 is 64sq in. The closest model I have to hand is a diecast 1/24th VW Type III, close enough to a Civic. It is 2.75x2.25in or 6.1875sq in. That a blockage ratio of about 10%.

I will defer to another member, aerohead, on what the maximum blockage ratio should be.
