Just a quick question if anyone knows, or can link me a site that can tell me?
Does a beetle need to have windows in the doors for drag racing?(warwick style) or are window nets enough. I know windows help for the wind resistence
etc, but im not looking at uber ET's so that doesnt really bother me. I've been told yes they do need windows, but then seeing the manx's out at
Wariwick without any nets or anything made me rethink this. any help would be greatly appreciated
If the car came with windows it must have them up.
Convertables too. Top must be up.
A Manx does not fit any ANDRA rules for sedans since no doors,
but at Warwick some things are relaxed to help entrant numbers.
Those rules become more strict if the car is faster than 12 seconds, and even tougher at steps of 10.99 and 9.99.
If you run in the 8's there are more rules , but if you go that fast it will be world news.
i've run with my buggy at an eastern ck street drags night. they asked me to run with the top on the plastic side screens zipped up on my buggy.

Thanx guys, thats what i was thinking but just wanted to make sure.
i think once your beyond the 10 second mark you need a chute from what i know.
Oh well when and if i ever finish building my car i guess it wont be heading down the strip at Warwick
looks like you will have to undo all those welds and open up your window runners again bodo or sikaflex perspex to it
You should be allright with window nets if the windows are taken out allthough they may ask you to wear arm restraints as well.
I have raced at willowbank in a car with a roof and no side windows(moke) and it was fine as it didn't go quicker than 13.99(I think thats the
cutoff)
