Default Use Safety Glass - not plastic

Unless your car is for track use only, I would not recommend a plastic or Lexan windscreen.

I have ridden in Lynn Park's Cobra, which has a Lexan windshield. It is treacherous driving toward the sun - I could not see anything - just a nearly opaque blur of scratchy haze. I think the only way we got where we were going was that he knew the route, inch by inch.

I also recall that he has had a few "Equipment Violation" citations from the CHP for not having "Safety Glasss" in his windshield.

For your own safety, and the safety of others, I'd recommend using real Safety Glass.

Regards,

Jeff
