If you can't tell, I dig your car (even without the side windows,  )...

I left the weight in the car..so I ran around 3180 - 3200 lbs. The car is balanced and that was more important than weight. The lead is removable in 6 lb bars in two 50 cal. ammo boxes mounted in the rear.
This door window subject is understandable to a point. I drove over 100 miles in the rain and 38 degrees last Friday night. It actually was not that bad and I did not even get wet.

I put the bed liner material in for that reason. I have a fan than pulls engine heat into the interior and that helped out a lot. Everything is coated so that it can get wet and clean very easily. I washed the car at 5am of the day of the event in the car wash.
The rotors and calipers were all upgraded at Wilwood a few weeks ago. I went with a 6 piston caliper in the front and the new Spec 37 rotors all around. Check out the video we shot for OUSCI:
