Just my 2 cents on whether the more hardcore Supra option should be street legal.
Even though the idea is to save weight, I would say yes it should be street legal for the simple reason anyone serious enough to track a more focused vehicle would more than likely be able to remove the NHTSA features like airbags and crash beams without a problem. At least the rest of the market would be able to drive it on the street if they were fine leaving it alone. I don't really see an advantage to stripping down an already road legal vehicle to sell to an even smaller market when that market would likely tear the vehicle apart anyway.
