I totally agree, but at the same time lets look at some alternatives. You configure the car to be like a jet cockpit with pass behind driver and narrow it up. Then you have a car that is prone to sidewinds and tipping over in a windstorm...
Crap my car is on it's side in the neighbors yard again lol...
There is going to have to be compromises made that will yield a practical car with acceptable mileage. Sure I could take a empty torpedo shell and mount 4 aero wheels on it and probably get 200mpg laying on my stomach looking out a clear nosecone, but hows that gonna work for old people, fat people, or spoiled people?
Wheres the cruise control and DVD player?
Flat and wide is stable, run air thru the parts of the car you can instead of around it...
I will post some scans of my drawings up once autocad gets here next week and I can get them transferred in..
