Yeah... good luck with that...

I dunno, it's not an unreasonable consideration. SM is a fairly new class, so it's not like asking them to change A-Stock or anything, there's gotta be bugs in the rule to be worked out. The way I figure, they allow lightened hoods, why not trunk-lids? It's not like removing 10 lbs of weight from the back of the car is gonna make the car a class killer! Besides... what if I have a rear-engine car, I can't change my trunk-lid to help air-flow, whereas all the front engine cars can change the hood?
