Honestly, I think the S2K windshield is raked so high to allow water to go right over our head in the event it rains while driving top down.


Just like how all hondas have channels on the side of their windshield to catch the water as it comes off the wipers to guide it above the car.

 

keep in mind the difference will be very small until at least freeway speeds. this will NOT change how quickly you get to 60, and it won't change your 1/4 mile time significantly either.

but yes, better aero = faster when drag starts to become more significant.

in rough terms, drag force increases with the square of your vehicle's speed, so if you know your drag force at 50mph:

your drag at 50 mph is a certain amount of lbs
your drag at 70 mph is 2x that amount of lbs
your drag at 100mph is 4x the amount of lbs at 50
your drag at 140mph is 8x the amount of lbs at 50

 

Yes, it turns your car into a rocket so pick one up son!
