Well I'm doing 75 mph on the way to Carlisle with my wife and it dawns on me that at that speed, without side curtains I would probably tear the soft top off the car. In the forum's infinite wisdom, what's my best bet here. What's the experience of other owners. Thanks.

I've found that without the side windows in, the wind noise is tremendous, only slightly better with the side curtains installed
...........After riding around in a friends car, I firmly believe heated seats are going to be in my next Cobra build.....Even if I have a heater installed.......Finally, with our without the side curtains in, the top will be good to about 75mph, then flaps a round just a bit, enough to move the top of the windshield a quarter inch or so which makes me nervous that I might crack the windshield.....A windshield center post would eliminate some of this movement.........
