So far have only had my car with standard windscreen and i wonder is it OK if i fit an aeroscreen and only use a pair of glasses to drive the car on the road or is a full face helmet a must have.
Performance aside I dont see the point of replacing the windscreen with an aeroscreen if one wears a full face helmet.
You loose the sounds, the smells and the wind baffering and all your connections to the elements in general.

I found so far a windscreen and half doors are most comfortable while allowing you to have 100% of the sensations a caterham can offer.
So i think adding up an aeroscreen will only increase the thrills and most probably create a more streamline airflow to your face than the windscreen, then a good set of glasses will protect your eyes from all the road debries, stones, mosquittos, etc.

What is your opinion and experiences?

Defo not for me thanks , I get enough insects when I am out on my bike , that said they do look cool , what about a brook lands screen ? They may give you best of both worlds
I do like the brookland but what are the advantages over the aeroscreen?
I was thinking of something like the meteor aeroscreen (transparent) so i can see through rather than not see ahead due to my height (5.6) and having fitted lowered floors.

Gentlemen!

All of you being more experienced than me with regards to caterhams I started up a thread to get your experiences and point of view on a subject i have no idea,
I did NOT open up the thread to start up a stupid fight over who is more prone to accidents.
Please find better ways to share your experiences.
