Thanks for posting the pics! It's always nice to see what others are doing with competition VX's, especially the simple things like the lexan/perspex windows and sliding vents. Ideas, ideas... :)

man they look great. are them flaps on the top similar to nascars, to prevent rollovers?

The "flaps" on top are vents for the driver and co-driver to provide cooling. You'll see these a lot on rally cars, sometimes under a scoop for added flow.

More importantly, where do you get them, those are sporty/sexy/cool. I know Coastie is gonna be after some of these too.:cool:

Pretty much any racing supply that has rally-centric stuff, the one pictured is at Primitive Racing. Gotta cut a hole in the roof though, and they're not known for being very waterproof. :bgwo:
