Better attached things fly out of cars. Case in point the tip of my very expensive B&B exhaust when it detached at Sebring during a DE back in 1996 and bounced off the hood of an M3 only to destroy his windshield and by "ricochet" almost affecting the structural integrity of my face.
In one of the vintage racing organizations i participate with, they invite a group of racers from the old world and man, their cars litter the track with spings, lids, etc. I had an ugly close call when I broke a cv at very high speed after hitting a chunk that came out of one of their cars.
(sidebar: not fun to break a CV at 140MPH barreling down the tri-oval at Daytona :O )
