Michael, I think you're right on the mark here.  Anyone interested should 
check out the discussion about this same topic at drivenperformance.com.  It 
ended a little ugly -- I got offended at what I thought was a crappy response 
from one of the SpecMiata founders -- that's another story.  Although I would 
much rather run topless, there are some advantages to running w/ the top, too.

If it matters, the group I race with is called Midwestern Council (MI, WI, IL 
areas mostly).  We allow Miatas (and all convertibles) in IT classes to run 
topless so long as the roll over protection criteria is met.  I'd gladly 
voice my opinion, but I'm not an SCCA member.  Any other thoughts?
