Never owned a convertible-esque car before, so when I unlatched the front of the soft top of my four door Big Bend and folded it back before driving on the highway, it wobbled quite a bit (totally manageable though). I also couldn't shake the feeling that the wind was just gonna rip the soft top right off the top at 75mph. Is there a max limit on driving with the top only partially opened or am I just paranoid?

Slowly increase your speed. When it rips off.. don't go that fast.
alternatively...
Now you can go that fast.

but seriously, I would expect that its tested to work at the top speed of the vehicle.

I would at least use the straps to help steady it though.
