I spoke briefly with DW Sr. about your windshield/receiver when I was at the factory over the summer, and I asked if he was using any of the known brands that are currently out in the market. He said that he never follows other manufacturers use of these products just for-sake-of and ease-of using well known brands. He wanted to design the windshield/receiver to follow the contours and lines of the DW32.

He also said that the windshield/receiver is an integral part of the deck that if done incorrectly would have performance consequences. That's the engineering mind the DW team.

Yes they are hyper conscious of aerodynamics and that had a lot to do with the design of this new windshield. Sr. was very open to what I was looking for and I think it is going to look really nice when done. I know the 3D model looked good!

Heard something about a Big V-bottom at the factory. Anyone know the scoop?
