I got off work tonight and forgot to lock the latch for my ragtop. I was going down PCH when all of a sudden I hear alot of wind noise. At first I thought the AC turned on all of a sudden. I looked up and realized my ragtop was being pulled back by the wind. I quickly grabbed it with my right hand while trying to maintain control of the wheel with my left. This was quite a difficult task as the road was somewhat winey and I was trying downshift and pull over at the same time. I hope I didnt break anything, although I heard one cracking noise while the top was being lifted by the wind. It was some scary ****. I pulled over and tried testing opening/closing of the top and it worked fine. Any of you roadster owners even forget to latch your ragtop?

 

it is all automatic for me. i havent forgotten yet... knock on wood.

glad you are ok and didnt crash while trying to re-latch your top.

 

Damn, glad I got the hardtop version - I'd hate to end up with a permanent convertable... lol

 

 

that is true. i would hate to have a permanent roadster too, but i would hate to have to drive a permanent coupe even more.

peace, peace.... i am just kidding.
