Usually depends on where your speed limiter is set at. A stock M6 30th WS6 'vert hit its speed limiter at 162MPH for C&D (while a M6 '99 SS 'vert hit the air-wall at 158MPH........ something to do w/ not having "Ram Air" or something like that, LOL). Non SS/WS6 cars w/ 16" rims/non-Z-rated tires have their limiters set lower.

Potential for shrinkage and creases forming from not being taut. However, if its completely dry when its lowered in the first place, shrinkage shouldn't be a problem. I've had mine down for weeks at a time w/ no problems. Yeah, there are a few creases from being folded for so long, but they go away after awhile. I don't think there is any long term harm from leaving it down for extended periods.
