I don't know if dropping the top while you're going backwards at 15-20 mph is a good idea. You won't be able to see where you're going.

Na, it is ok, i have a long driveway that i have had for 20 years, i could back down it with my eyes closed.

30-40 is a bad idea indeed. im thinking 20 and below.

I was doing 120 on the AutoX course while raising and lowering my top!!! I am too cool. Just ask Brian.



But seriously, I try to stay below 15 but I put it up once somewhat faster than 20 due to rain and it didn't want to latch right away.

I can only imagine what a 15 mph wind, assuming there's no head wind, does to stress the top material, the frame, and the motor. I'm too skeered to go much over ten and operate the top.

On the other hand, I want to install a repeater so I don't have to hold the button the whole time anymore.
