Antwawn, did you buy the Plexiglass, or make it? If you made, it, did you just form it over the window with a torch, and where did you get it?

believe it or not i bought it off ebay...some guy happened to have a racing MX3 shell....with the fiberglass hood(extra light and thin) and the plexiglass hatch. I snatched it up before anyone found out about it haha. the glass hatch was close to 100 pounds i think mine weighed in at like 20 or 25.

Well official weight says it is 2030 pounds (scale is accurate for about 20 pounds give or take)

so if i switch my racing battery in id be just about under 2000 pounds deff if i get rid of the insulation.

and no im not planningon selling the hood or the plex hatch. : P


I never had it dyno tuned or anything so i dont know the HP : (
