You sound like one of them there naysayers. Do you have your information from competent authority or is it something you just figured out yourself. We cross the scales at 1000 lbs plus with our wing on and do pretty good.

Bill May has an ultrasonic thickness tester at hand, probably the only one out there right now. Cars are weighed at the end of each race. If you in-fact do own a car I would be glad to check your roll-bar thickness for you. The light weight frame deal was a problem several years ago and were produced in the late 90's but most of them are out of the system by now, If I thought I might have one I would ask Bill for a test before I even attempted Eldora.

You know "mini" I'd say your name has changed but your breath (attitude) still smells the same (A Rose by any other name).

We thinking about turning the wing right side up to kind of take a little weight off of the tires at speed. That is one of them aero things you just would not understand. 8.2 sounds good to me.
