Heh, the popup windblocker thingies are cute. I guess having removable tops is better than nothing, but it must suck to have to like, plan when you can take em off. I can flip and latch my top in like 10 seconds while I'm sitting in the dirver's seat.

aren't they cute? they actually retract slightly at 75mph+

eh, it's not really that much of a problem. I can get them off, bagged, and stowed in under a minute.

Wait til you autocross tomorrow at Mid State Airport. Bring a winter jacket, gloves and thermal underwear It gets fricking cold at the top of that mountain.

The one time I showed up in October it was like 40 degrees with 30mph winds. And I arrived in pants and a t-shirt. I was screwed!

Now by "retract" do you mean they're motorized, or just that they're spring-loaded and the wind at that speed pushes them down a bit?
