[!] Experiment with frontal Angled Cockpit Corner design

--- More bang for your buck with a boat that qualifies for 3 types of leagues. There's no such thing as too much speed. ---

The Rhombezoid is a racing boat that takes some cues from Wipeout-class hover racers. It is powered by a turbojet engine, making it capable of reaching 350 mph.

The elevated body hydroplane design reduces the occurence of water-based drag. The rear panel moves upwards for variable downforce.

The strengthened frontal hull allows for a greater chance of survival in case of a crash.

Important:
Heavy turning may cause flipping and spontaneous combustion. Heavy use of brakes or rear downforce at high speeds will cause short-term lift. Boat destabilises at 352 mph. DO NOT EXCEED THIS SPEED!

Controls:
Throttle for power
Roll to turn
VTOL up for rear panel
AG8 for lights

Tips:
At throttle ~30% you can DRIFT freely!
