Maybe a wrapover type on the rollbar would help. A bit like a smal "shelf" to catch the downdraught and a rear drop down behind the Rollbar, forming a type of targa effect.
Got me thinking now.


On the Plus 8 the wind in the cockpit comes from behind, on a damp road moisture and road crud end up on the interior mirror, the inside of the windscreen and the dashboard.

The amount is enough to make it impossible to drive hood down in the wet, even if the pilot is not wet, because I can't see through the filth on the inside of the screen.

A solution is needed!
I'm thinking of using the roll bar as a mount and cutting a Lexan sheet to fit onto the back face of it, using small riv-nuts and let into the roll bar and thumb screws.
Possibly a metal strip on the lower edge to make sure it cannot bend.
A quick web search suggests in 8mm polycarbonate about £60, half the price in 8mm Perspex. I think this is looking viable!
