Actually in looking at this swift, I realize that the Reynard is very similar in most details to it. The seller told me that the Reynard actually was intended to mimic the swift but did not have a car to measure and did it all from photographs and so missed on the total width making the Reynard wider and so less slippery. The swift has been the car to beat in FF for some time now because of its extreme narrow and slippery form. I see some details I can add to my car to make it slipperyer.
