Some ideas or examples? here ya go:notgotc90 wrote:What would be the pros and cons of using tent material or similar (or lycra) with a frame for shape, to experiment with the aerodynamics?
The sort of cheap clothes drying white frame (wire) would bend nicely for a temporary frame and that can be bolted on. Andhrn tent material over it to give an aerodynamic ride with posible increased MPG
Obviously material and a frame would not be road worthy by the road traffc act or ok for insurance purposes at first, but may be of use to build a prototype of soemthig more longterm.
