Bob, that IS a nice body, but if you are planning on running it under the rules we just raced at for Doorslammer class at Sam's race, it wouldn't be 'legal'. That body is actually considered an "Altered" type, since there are no fenders. And, if you read the rules posted below, it says "Full-Fendered Cars, No Roadsters or Convertibles". Don't let that stop ya from building it tho! Maybe, if we can get enuff of the 4 gear "Altered" cars, we can get a class going for those too! ;D

BTW..here's the 'rules' as posted for Sam's race:

Air Spoil: Must have at least a factory rear deck spoiler. Pro Stock Style, Pro Mod Style and detached wings are encouraged but not necessary to compete.
Parachute: Recommend one but will not disqualify a car for not having one.
The main reason for the minimum car weight is to get guys detailing them as much as possible. For anybody running this class at my proxy race..... I have plenty of these items (Scoops, Wings & Parachutes) that are yours for just asking. Weight is still to be determined.
