Hm, i'm not shure about that clearance thing. You have the engine and the drivetrain in the rear. So if you accelerate the nose of the car is up and the rear is down. If you hit a "rock" that could be a problem.

Weight: don't think that it's that important. Traction and HP seems more important to me. Especially if you want to use it as a dirt car. Who cares about 200 lbs if you can have fun on a dirt track all day long?

Do you need a roll cage or other "heavy weight" safety features to attend the dirt track events?

Regards, Markus
