Perhaps you should re-read the thread again. The guy who gave us an explanation was a technician at this shop, someone who works on high performance cars for a living. He was "assisting" us with the photo shoot.
I remember being one of the early C6 Corvette owners in 2005. The first time someone reported their roof flying off at highway speeds, several people told that guy to quit bitching, and that it was an isolated case. Some even laughed and said he must have done something to damage his car. Now, 100s of flying roofs later, it isn't so funny or isolated. Just keep that in mind. I guarantee the C6 Corvette also had plenty of wind tunnel and high-speed tests prior to a roof flying off. Not all problems are solved on the engineering side of things. It is important to understand that this destructive failure is POSSIBLE, it is not a guarantee it will happen. We shall see if others find the problem in time.
