Does anyone know whether you can run window nets as opposed to windows in D8?

I will read the blue book tomorrow but in the mean time, any guidance would be cool :D

Once again the polycarbonate tried to leave the building so I'm trying to pre-empt more fuck ups on Saturday. Tank tape at the ready :lol:

Cheers

How about a series of holes in the rear window, assuming it's polycarbonate (can't remember through the alcoholic haze :grin: )

Is the window being sucked out (unlikely you're going that fast) or blown out (pressure build up). If the latter it'll be a parachute effect that you could well do without :D so the holes will relieve the pressure.

I'll edit in the morning :roll:

Also, if you do run window nets, are you likely to blow the rest of the poly out?

Plus also, if you run window nets, it's bound to piss down. :o

Ran last night with no poly window in drivers side up to indicated 125 ish.........no issues after the first one fell out :D

I'll take tank tape, holesaw and window net just in case

Oh yeah :D

I need to call Christine Sharp first thing as it looks like they may insist on MSA logbooks, which I don't have.

Wish me luck :thumb:

Good luck Stuart, how come you haven't got a log book sorted yet??

The regs always say that log books are necessary.

I thought you had this sorted?

Good luck :grin:
