I think he forgot the 1 out front lol. Seriously though that sucks, i bet the viper and porsche guys are laughing it up because a car designed to keep up perf wise can't hold the top down.

GM is supposedly issuing a recall or TSB (I forget which one it was exactly) as apparently this is becoming a bit too common to call it an isolated incident. Supposedly the roof of more than a few C6s have come flying off and they're not necessarily related to speed. There's an article about this over at Autoblog. I'll find it and post it.

Apparently high heat and stress can lead to failure of the adhesive used to hold the roof together.
