After the successful ending of the war , in 1948 , the German Reich declared the new Olympic Games in Germany .  And plane racing became Olympic , even like Panzerfaust Shooting and Tank Sprint    .

So the need for a 2 engine race jet Leads to the construction with negative shaped wings ,
just a fashion of the late 40's construction scene who ended abrupt with the invention of modern delta shaped jets .

Eva Braun herself started in the Olympic Contest with this fast looking jet , kicking her rival Leni Riefenstahl early out of contest    , which was truly the more expierenced pilot , but was no more in the front line of guests at the Berghof after war , because Hiltler don't like her interest in black man ( watch here later film project with Masai in Afrika ) . That results in less technical support to her plane , so Eva Braun wins the qualifying race at Garmisch by far .

Interesting 

 

will this remain a tailless plane? or later with tailplanes or else: foreplanes?

That's what i think about, it was planed with canards , but maybe i lift up the tailwing ( T-tail ) .

Just have lowered the cabin hood for racing .

And the mistress ordered a special Podracer Version, so i started making  the FAT ENGINES for it .

Yes, wonderful with these canard foreplanes!

For some reason I can see that on hydrofoils/planes as a water speed racer. 

  

First session in color- izing , just a vintage style race look , any suggestions are welcome , maybe i will ad another shade of grey .

That looks soooo nice, great colour selection, not going to suggest anything as you seem to have nailed it so far!

Well know fact; paint anything red & it goes faster, especially if you put go-faster stripes on it, too!  

That's the ticket mate 
Looking sweet .

Absolutely, and more thin stripes can make it even faster.
