Markus Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 Just wondering since I don't see this listed under Aero or Free stuff.... For convertibles, a hardtop can be an advantage. Should this be charged any points under "Aero"? Or is it an open/free item since it's also somewhat safety related? Just curious since I don't see it in either place. Thanks! - Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slink Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 look under weight reduction #19. if you drop your top and bolt on a hard top no points , you just added weight. but if you remove the convertible top and bolt on the hard top 2 points.

Markus Posted December 13, 2006 Author Share Posted December 13, 2006 look under weight reduction #19 Oops I skipped this, I was assuming most people would use the alternate weight reduction method. Which basically means there is no aero penalty for a hardtop. Thanks! - Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
