Are there any opinions on a good airfoil for 2,400 pounds going 200 MPH?

Lynn, Check out the RV-10 airfoil. Van was looking for exactly that senario. They even show the airfoil on the website, look at the discussion about layout.  With respect to your other comments about cooling, ditto. We do tend to beat this one to death. Use a big enough radiator (at least 2 ci. per HP with good ducting) and a big enough oil cooler. If your system over cools, pat yourself on the back andstart taping off the radiator until it's just right and install the smaller radiator.
