I had to remove fenders, doors and some steel panels to make the frame as light as possible. However not to much since the roll cage hasn't been welded !

How about taking off the roof and replacing it with FG?

Hello!
I have few hints if you want to make it as light as possible.
Chop of the rear and bolt the engine on rear bulkhead. Make a mould out of the roof, chop it off and replace with Carbon Fibre insert.

Make a plug out of front end, remove fenders, replace with tubing, make a carbon-fibre or fibreglass front, reattach.
