The sharknose Graham is similar to the bullet-nose Studebaker, from a decade earlier.

I picked the Baja because the intake is raised above the boundary layer, just like the Audi. But everyone focuses on the oil lines, and they are not even braided stainless.

I'm interested in the fin on the top/outer edge of the front fender. Does it cut down the 'bow wake', like the USS Independence?
