        SM does not allow for that much weight reduction though... it looks like we'd be bumped into a Prepared class...

            Yup. And if there's an e30 that stands a chance in Prepared I'd like to see it so I can drool all over it.

                    Did the E30 ever come without AC or PS?

                        I've never seen a US spec car without either. In Europe and other markets, you could get a manual rack.

                            Yeah I'm in SM, and other then the back seat and A/C everything else is very iffy. Who says they didn't forget to tar your truck :) but removing it, not really legal.

                                Yeah even the rules state there can be various interpretations as to what's legal and what's not in SM, but to basically do your best to not reduce weight or modify the chassis, just make changes where needed, to make room for legal mods. I think SM was designed more to attract people to the sport.

                                        my 1986 base model 325 did not come with AC. it was purchased brand new from a dealership in georgia. if american cars all got AC, it wouldnt surprise me, because my 86 has some weird stuff about it thats only on the euros.
