Yes the back seat is 24lbs... There are so many other things that do not show right away...

Rims, tires, trunk crap, underbraces, brakes, small batteries, lighter front seats, etc etc....

And don't forget... We have seen "full interior" cars weighting 3000 lbs with driver.... Anyway...

I will be running around 3350 with driver (driver 230lbs)...

It depends on which part of the cage your needing the letters are in reference to the NHRA rule book for 2009.

The "A" bars are 1 5/8 " MS = .118 CM = .083

The "B" bars are variable depending on how you run them.

The "C" bars are 1 /14" MS = .118 CM =.083

The "D" bars are 1 1/4" MS = .118 CM = .083

Make sure to use Chromemoly. Its lighter and you can run smaller size tubing.

My bad a little overkill but at least if anyone else needs the info it's there!

I call 5/6 pointers "bars" and 8/10 pointers "cages"
