Embarrassing, Glad this was at night!!! It's about 2:30am, I'm cruising the whole time around the city. I get on to I-16... cruising.... People riding all on my tail... I control myself. I get onto I-95... here comes this wack *** RT-Charger... I'm about to rape this slow *** car.. thats what i think... Man!! He's reving up at me, I drop gear and play with the throttle, We hit it. As soon as i hit the gas i start pulling. I get to 80 and my ******* t-top flies straight of my damn car... damn.. Did I go back for it? Not after the 18 wheeler behind me wiped its feet with it... Off to the classifieds before another rain storm comes.

That happend to me 3 weeks after I got my car. I already had a firebird v6 for a year so I was familiar with t-tops. Both of mine flew out. One of them flipped over and hit my rear windshield and the ttop shattered into pieces and scratched my paint on my spoiler all up. I actually got my insurance to pay for everything. Talk to your insurance about it.

RIGHT. I was thinkin the same thing. I've run mid 11's at 120+ and it never crossed my mind. GREAT. . . one more thing to worry about lol
My hard top would rule too if the M/F paint wasn't bubbling up.
I could have gotten killed when my buddy's TA top flew off. I was following him doing about 90 when his driver side top took off into the air and smashed the ground right in front of my car. Close call!
