Simmons,

Thanks for the weight, its encouraging! My car should only be 14lbs heavier and you still have the 20lbs of wheel weight to lose, possibly more. Do those scale usually measure pretty accurately?
Granted, the weight wouldn't be a great penalty, in fact, I could lose that much weight or more off of my fat ass, but the expense would still be there, wouldn't it? It is my understanding that any trim change has to include the entire trim, so it would need the leather/alcantra seats, the keyless entry, and on down the line.

Of course, local groups can grant exceptions if they want. Locally, we are talking about letting a 1st generation Boxer run in STR eventhough nationally it can't.
