I do know weight is obviously a negative in drag racing and there seems to be alot of extra weight left in that car! My neighbor has a tube chassis alcohol car he drag races and one day he went through the car cutting off every bolt 3 threads past the nut or whatever the bolt went through and he filled two folgers coffee cans that weighed 41 pounds! Seemed excessive to me but I guess pulling a .96 60ft it all has to be done at every level!

For the NHRA classes that the COPO will run in, rules require a full interior, even the headliner. Just like the Mustang Cobra Jet and Challenger drag pack. It is competitive in terms of weight.
