I was wondering about removing some parts from the Jensen Healey that I am attempting to prep for ITS. Specifically, the door panels.
I've read the rules and done a search, but I'm still not exactly sure if I should remove them or not.
It appears that if I have a roll cage with NASCAR type side intrusion bars then I can replace the panel with 0.060" aluminum and gut the door. I will have a cage built by a local fellow that does cages for various cars, but, how do I know this cage will fit the letter of the law that will allow removal of the door panel? Door panels don't weigh much, but, they are worth a LOT to JH folks and if I can sell them it'd help the race car fund.
I asked around at VIR this past weekend but it still seems a little bit of a grey area.
