If there's a specific reason to do that, then it will be what it will be. If you can 'relax' the curvature, you'll get some additional drag reduction.
22-degrees maximum downslope on any 'roofline' is a safe bet.

Yes I see what you mean, it can definitely be slopped less even matching the slope of the cap. Also the bottom can be slopped up a slight bit too I think. This will also be designed around the gear required to store in it, the big tire being the main thing. What I need to do is show a view from top to establish the gradual turn in from the sides. I know from the models online the longer and more gradual it extends out the back the better but I'll have to sacrifice some of that.
