Default coyote wing replacement

I had a Bob martin 72" sailplane, the Coyote. Yes the one with the duralene fuse. I built it flew it alot. then destroyed the wing. the fuse is in great shape. Someone suggested putting an RG-14 wing on it. What do you guys think? the old wing had a swept back form which really added to the look. I want speed and performance.
Suggestions?

If you still have the wing you can have cores cut to that same wing plan form. I use a company out here in California called WWW.flyingfoam.com Check it out they may be able to help you out. All you will have to do is send them the old wing and they can cut it exactly to the other. If you change the airfoil you may not fit the wing to the fuselage perfectly.
