Why Lexan? Strong I guess but won't it scratch like crazy after a while? Sounds interesting at least.

I'm guessing it's probably for road racing.

What about plexiglass??

Its cheap, so if you sratch it you can just replace it for cheap. Lots of places carry stuff thick and big enough to work.

Well it won't shatter, just crack like saftey glass. And a fairly thick peice should be pretty dammed tough. Also its pretty easy to work with, just cut it with a powered air saw
