After studying the design a bit more, I'm thinking the second floor idea is more trouble than it's worth. I may just have to employ a gear driven lower-able wing to combat rear suck down at speed, and dropping from near the bumper into the airstream. Unlike the usual wing on cars, which applies a down force at speed to combat lift, this one would apply lift at speed to combat down force created under the boat tail. Perhaps the wing could be operated mechanically by the change in the distance between the rear axle beam, and the car under body.

You know, I'm just brainstorming, don't you?

Thanks for the Coroplast suggestion.
