Not sure how much weight you’d really save by doing an open wheel front. You’d have to really chop some frame to get it in far enough.
Windscreen gone. It’s the wave of the future.

As mentioned, the Ariel Atom is the open wheel, all street practically jettisoned, track weapon being described.
But not everyone can afford such. But a close second might be a Lotus 7 clone kit car. They don't look very impressive, but they sure do generate impressive numbers, and the ultralite nature makes them very fun as well, very tossable. There is even a kit that uses an S engine and trans, though that one is not cheap.

the I looked into other options luke the super 7 replicas, way not safe enough due to their minimalistic chassis.
the only one I would want is a dokervoort DB8 but thats over 200k.
or a Lotus 2-eleven / 3-eleven.
but not sure if the engine would be as much fun.
so I'll give this a try.
for sure it wont be as quick as a wcm superlite or westfield with F20 bit it should perform well with 800 lbs less and give lots of fun
