Does anybody anywhere know where to find the torsional rigidity of the 914 with the roof off vs. roof on vs. steel roof (916) ?
Thanks in advance. |

Convertibles consistently about half as rigid as the coupes. My dad raced a Corvair 140 corsa for years. Got his hands on a 180 turbo convertible. Went from first to last in the class. Horrible handling no matter what he did. Turbo lag was no help either. |
