This was a neat post. I have to believe that at some point in time their will likely be vehicles which could use the wind speed to enhance their effectiveness. It would certainly be possible for a controller to determine when and what direction of orientation to use, to extend or retract some type of wind device, similar to the fixed symmetry wings which are used here.

Pretty impressive speeds for just wind power.
