[Fot] racing windscreen for TR3 wanted

[John Styduhar]

My club rules say the following concerning windshields:

3.2.10.3. A transparent windscreen capable of
deflecting debris away from the driver, is required.

In my club like most others you need to have some type of windscreen, which
is a good idea no matter how small to deflect tire rubber, stones, oil and
smoke, and parts that come flying off the car(s) in front of you.  Some of
you guys that have been hit in your visor by track debris know what I am
talking about.  The little Brooklands screen that they (moss and others)
sell will work on the TR3 and is what I use. But I changes the mounting
brackets so it is more in line with the direction of the wind and impact.
If you are concerned about drilling holes in your TR3 like I was, drill
them just below where the lower rubber weatherstrip on the stock windshield
would rest on the scuttle. They will be hidden if you convert your car back
to road use. Sitting low in the car also help protect the driver.
