Message	Hypothetical of course... I picked up an extra set of TTops with busted glass, and I'm wondering if there would be any benefit to running just the portion that clips in (no glass at all) vs. going topless (in terms of chasis rigidity). From an aerodynamic standpoint, tops on is always best, but I love the open cockpit feel...I'm trying to have my cake and eat it too. What's your opinion?
