Wayne, I saw a few cars at cecil with door tin.... I didnt think it was legal - from Sear's rules:
INTERIOR:
Factory appearing dashboard, door panels, and driver seat is required. Full Carpet is required on floorboards. Factory floor pan on driver and passenger side required. Bare inside frame of car cannot be exposed. Aftermarket steering column is permitted.

Gotcha - saw a few cars with aluminum at Nate's race last weekend....
Guess I interpreted the rules as "Factory appearing dash, factory appearing door panels" etc.. Not as Factory appearing dash, door panels, etc...
Now Im thinking about carbon interior panels.... l got the carbon doors and the factory panels are almost half the weight of the door.

Last time I talked to DMH they were still making the door panels. That's by far the lightest option. They're paper thin... but they serve the purpose of meeting the rules, which is what they were made to do.
ATV you have gotten a TON of weight out of the car. 2550 is a very good #.
I'd like to see what you did with the engine bay, and under the car. Did you cut the metal out that's behind the rear bumper cover outside the frame rails too? And did you hole saw, or cut out any of the metal that's behind the rear interior panels? What about under the front 1/4's?
