IIRC, and that is questionable, I think Jack had some high molecular weight
material attached along the bottom edges of his flat bottom motorcycle. As
far as I know, it worked out fine. Some strips of that stuff, attached to
the bottom of your nose piece, might added some insurance.

Edit . . .  On paper the load on the rear wheels including down force is
416# @ 220 mph and 600# @ 330 mph . Will monitor rear ride height to see if
more or less wing pitch is needed . 

Edit . . . The nose touches when it tips 5 deg . . .
