Last time I went to the local dirt track (granted this was a few years ago), it was dominated by 2.3's. Almost everyone in the class was running an older Fox mustang (four eye cars) or a Pinto. There were only maybe 2 guys that were running Chevies (can't remember if they were chevettes or vegas)

I'm betting fully gutted you could get one down to 2250 or so. That assumes you don't have a rollcage. With a cage and such maybe 2400.
