Here's a photograph of the Type 4:

And a photo of the rear, showing a cardboard tailfin:

Again, these photos were taken in the 1980's, so if you don't see any
innovation, it's because the photos are twenty years old.
I post these here for archival purposes. Keep in mind that I started
with upright bicycles, and only later did I move to semi-recumbents. My
goal was to make money, so I have kept all my bikes relatively simple,
with inexpensive parts and components.
The Peraves Ecomobile was mentioned in a previous post, and you should
note that the Ecomobile does NOT have a recumbent seating position.
Racing is fun, but the reason vehicles are raced is to develop
improvements, which will find their way into production, which in turn
makes more money for the manufacturer.
Have a happy Independence Day, be careful with the pyrotechnics.
