Beautiful!  Perhaps an advanced G.55C with leading edge radiators?  Do the same with a G.59 but replace the Merlin with a Griffon?

Very nice.  :)

Perhaps a racer-ized Mitsubishi Ki-15-I as competition?,
or perhaps the Ki-15-II with the 14-cylinder engine?  ;D

How about a racing version of one of the fully streamlined Ki-46 variants, perhaps with larger/more powerful engines?
