Race car windows ???
Just wondering about the race car inspired windows at 3:35 in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XISoGSeNZtg
, can they really lock at any position or is the builder fooling Leno by using new tight weather-striping channels and relying on friction to do the job ? It’s doubtful that could work when the car hits bumps or the weather-striping ages. ~ John Buchtenkirch

Watched it several times and didn’t see any belts…….. that’s why I was asking . Back in my day (early seventies) the most serious street racers used belts with Velcro to position plastic side windows, I was just wondering if some clever person had come up with a newer improved idea ? ~ John Buchtenkirch
P.S. of course you could always have the 2 half windows that slide horizontally (2 lane blacktop, 55 Chevy style) but that was looked down on as being a dead giveaway that the car had plastic windows.

Having a window slip down at high speed and the accompanying blast of air would be very unnerving for me & likely most people. So I just have to believe there’s got to be some type of positive way to lock the window position on such a high end build. ~ John Buchtenkirch
