As others here have said ... 40mph and up gets most of it over the car . I ran a HPDE in the rain at VIR several years ago and noticed that once I got moving up to about 100 mph , rain/water in the cockpit wasn`t a problem . I got the wettest on pit road . Obviously , wipers were useless .... Rainex does work .
Got caught a while ago cruising about 10 miles from home . The weather seals on the drivers door let my left leg get wet , otherwise we only got slightly damp .
Enjoy the car and don`t worry . Carpets dry . I do have a tonneau cover and it keeps 95% of the rain out while parked .
dcdoug is right about the looks you get from others as you go by . One lady almost ran off the road when she saw us .
