From vast experience, a set of diving goggles (I prefer a yellow tinted set), rain ex on both sides of the windshield in advance (wipers are not as effective as you would think), and a offshore two piece rain suit (pants and jacket) are your best bet when driving a cobra without a top long distances. Additionally, a pre-designed floor drain with a removable rubber plug is also highly suggested for both sides of the transmission tunnel.
Other than that, making sure your tires are in excellent condition, and taking acceleration/deceleration, and lane changes in moderation, goes a long way to making your trip a little safer.
