I looked for a long time at aluminum, both Kirkham and CSX. We get LOTS of hail here so I decided it would not work. Similarly, I was concerned about the fiberglass for the same reason - checking and stars. (One thing you learn is that you WILL get caught in it some time.) When I saw the carbon fiber body I jumped on it like a hawk on a snake. On the way back from a car show in Loveland I drove through a thunderstorm (yes, I got wet) that turned into a hail storm - hail was bigger than marble but smaller than golf ball. My ears were bleeding by the time I got pulled under a tree on the side of the road (next to a guy in a Jeep CJ with his top off) and ducked under the tonneau cover. I didn't get hurt (just scratched) but there was no hail damage on the car body!!! Right choice for me and the area I live in. Now if I could just get the engine running right. Noone here knows anything about the Roush/Accel DFI so my tuner and I are both learning at the same time. Then things like broken ignition controllers cause little setbacks.
