BTW, that doodle bug thing was clearly designed for low speed operation. The angle of the back is much too steep to maintain attached flow at higher speeds, and another flaw in it's design, besides having too high of a stagnation point in front, is the the back ends in a radius, when it should end either in a point, a sharp edge, or a sudden, sharp-edged cut-off. The blunt rounded tail will cause turbulence behind it at higher speeds.
