"itchy hair"
"perfect for the racetrack"

has this person ever ridden a sportbike?

ESokoloff:
At temperatures above 65°f, I'm out.

Alan Stewart:
Given that it's completely open on the sides and back I don't think heat would be an issue, particularly if the overhead "windows" have reflective film applied to them.

It would probably be highly aerodynamic, maximizing range and top speed.

BrianTRice@gmail.com:
This is a design concept from 2012: http://www.philpauley.com/crossbow.php

There are a lot of safety problems with the idea; you wouldn't want to break your neck or skull getting rear-ended, say, by flying into the screen.

I am attracted to having an aircraft canopy as part of an aerodynamic design; it'd just need to very very easily be something that one flew around rather than into in the event of a collision.
