Default SSE Racing Plane?

I am building my second SSE, and I'm gonna put a cowl on it and turn the engine 90*. I was looking at some of the pictures in the photo gallery, and it occured to me that with a nice cowl, it really has the looks of a racer. Would it be worth the time to build a wing set with a different airfoil, and see how it performs? Maybe split a .40 size Mustang wing, and build it to mate with the SSE fuselage? I think it would be pretty cool! By the way, that's NOT my plane in the pic. I saved it from the photo gallery so I could upload it here to show you what I mean. It looks like a racer to me, but the airfoil's obviously too thick.
