It may be the worst place to have extra weight, but dust doesn't weigh all that much. And weight doesn't matter at all for top speed runs, unless it's only a short one.
Weight is not nearly as important in Speed Trials as drags, but stopping w/o a chute can get interesting! :)

You have an inside hood release, don't you?

Just get rid of the safety latch.

Have you seen the pics of the hood corners pulling up at speed?!?!? I am shocked it all holds!

There's a reason they used leather straps to hold the hoods down in the past - at much lower speeds.

Not a RE but if this is any indicator, the HCs are gonna be sitting around for a while. On one of the 7-8 Durango HCs a local dealer has. No mark ups and EP and still sitting.

I'm guessing the dealer expects to get a stupid premium when customers look at what else is on the lot! It’s either a Hornet or an overpriced RE! What would you do! :ROFLMAO:

The late-into-the-game-buyers deserve this!
Intetest rates are probably killing the market more then anything. I still say buy used and save a ton of money
