Lexan or Plexiglass windshields

["DMC Wannabe" <jzd_88mph@xxxx>]

 Claude and list,
I dont see many problems with using Lexan or Plexiglass for 
windshields. On my car (non DMC) the front two windows will be Lexan 
half styles (like the DMC, top part stays in place, the bottom half 
rolls down like normal) because of the custom speaker set-up (cant 
have the window hitting the speaker, now cant we?). Also, about the 
issue about breaking, at the race track where I work everyone uses 
Lexan or Plexiglass on their race cars. True the cars are not driven 
on the streets everyday, but they go just as fast and hit each other 
harder than "most" everyday situations. Never have we had a 
windshield break. The only concern I would have using Lexan as a 
windshield is that it scratches very easily and scratches dont buff 
out.
