I'm not sure entirely..could be a couple of reasons. Shelby/AC only ran the top originally on two cars, but the indents on the sides of the top were originally cut open, I believe, to provide a bit of pressure relief. I copied what the guys are doing who run the Master's Series in Europe. Many of those guys run some sort of holes in the rear screen to help with releasing pressure from the cavity. Personally, I think it looks "racecar"...so that's my main reasoning.
