I'm not such what it would be for a CRX, but you still can only go so fast due to air resistance!

A human freefalling in flare position falls around 120 mph, move to trim position (face down) and it increases to around 150-160 i think.
Now weight has nothing to do with how fast you fall (thanks to Isaac Newton), so in a flare position is there as much drag on me as there would be on a CRX body? Hmm....probably not. So, free-falling, would the CRX even hit 120mph??? I think not. I could be mistaken though.
I think I could run that fast if my legs where geared correctly where I could move them that quick....
