Message	:This is mostly done because its lighter than fiberglass. Holds a 10" sub, 15lb NOS bottle, and battery. Weighs in less than 4 lbs I think. you have to admit, it was done 100% because of looks. If it were a real race car, it wouldn't have NOS (banned by most racing organizations) and it certainly wouldn't have a sub. Therefore, it is some kids car who attends illegal street races and car shows. It is not for function. PS, if you lay up fiberglass properly (autoclave) it can be *lighter* then carbon fiber, just not as strong (still strong, just not as strong). You forget, I work in aerospace. I have to spec carbon fiber, fiberglass, and resin/core based materials on a regular basis. I know 'wassup'.
