How much difference in chassis stiffness and weight does the sunroof on an S13 fastback actually make? I've been looking and looking for a hardtop because I want to use it as a track car but every one in a 100 mile radius has a sunroof.

If it doesn't make that much difference then I'll probably just settle for a sunroof.. but I'd really so much rather have a hardtop. Would I notice the difference on a typical autocross course?
