I agree we should have a vert section. I just sealed my top this weekend, had to get it done before rainy season starts.

Cargirl, where did you get your top sealed, mine leakes a little. I know I'm not in FL but was it done in a car shop or a boat yard, I don't know where to take mine to.

Gigantor, I bought the protectant from autogeek.net and sprayed it on myself. Now when it rains it should bead up just like when I wax my car. I don't think it will fix a leak though.

No, RAGGTOPP won't fix leaks but it definitely is an amazing product to use on the fabric tops. It repels water for months on end. I use it on both my current 'verts and have for years.
If you do buy the RAGGTOPP, make sure your top is completely clean and dry before applying the product. Use a lint roller to grab anything else off the cloth material. Raise the top just a little and tuck large towels all around the windshield and side windows and then put the top back down on top of them. This prevents the product from spraying on the glass (and paint too). It is a pain to clean if you accidentally get some on the glass or paint.
Make sure you buy the 'protectant'. They have cleaners and other products as well. I have found JC Whitney to have the best prices, especially when they offer free shipping. If no free shipping, get two cans and it technically cuts the shipping cost in half. If I can keep it under $25 per can delivered, then I'm happy with that.
Best of luck!

NC07GTCS, I hope it works as well as you say. This is the first time I have used it or anything like it. I'm always lint rollering the top, used to roller the top more on my BMW, this top doesn't seem to attract as much. I used newspaper instead of towels, covered the back window completely it worked really well.

I'm all for a 'Vert Only section... and plenty of us mod the hell out of them!

You will be impressed. You really need it in FL with the heavy summer rains and potential mold issues from the high humidity. We had a 2002 BMW Z3 for many years and I swear the RAGGTOPP prolonged the top's life by quite a bit. I used to apply two coats to it. Same with my current T/A, but just one coat on the GT/CS since it is so new still (10,000 miles).

there are many. the reason you don't see people racing them is not because of flex. it is that you do not have protection from a roll over. mod is larger throttle body, CAI and sct tune. running about 360 HP
