Quoted from Landracing.com forum: There's a guy named Charlie Toy that designed, in cooperation with a another racer or two (Correction: The Charlie Toy fairing was the sole design of Charlie Toy and Protoys Raging. Natural collaboration in conversation occurs through any race effort but this design was NOT the result of any sort of partnership No one but the friends and family of Protoys Racing can be attributed to its design or construction) , a fairing that's pretty aero efficient. Kent Riches (AirTech) has the molds and makes the fairings for us racers -- and the easy nomenclature for said fairing is a "Charlie Toy" fairing. Here's photo of my bike with the fairing -- a few others are running the same body, and more are running the tail section only with their own front pieces. | ||
