CR front lip and bulkhead removal for roll bar officially allowed for SCCA Solo
In response to my question, this was posted in the latest Fastrack:
Note though that since the CR *rear* wing requires additional trunk reinforcement, it may not be allowed. Front definitely is though.

#22583 Clarification on S2000 CR lip and Hard Dog roll bar with harness
The STAC believes that per 14.2.F adding a CR front lip on a base model S2000 is an allowable modification. Also, removal of factory S2000 roll hoops and the bulkhead between them when necessary to fit a legal roll bar is a Street category allowable modification (per 13.2.G) provided that the total weight of the roll bar being installed is greater than total weight of the removed components.

Stock seats are pretty nice, IMO.
or ziptie a 10lbs weight to the bottom of your aftermarket seats? I don't see the huge uproar of it.

Though this is a little too late for me, it is better late than never given that the rules were contradictory in recommending a roll bar and harnesses in an open top car but requiring the bulkhead bar (which renders the harnesses unsafe). Personally I run the single diagonal bar, bulkhead replacement, OEM 3-point, and 6-point all with all panels put back in except one 3x10" plastic panel; net weight change was +30lbs.
The seat weight change... would require that I add 15-20 lbs per seat. It would be safer to allow ballast at that point, no? FWIW, I spent $750/seat for used kevlar seats.
