hey so i have not posted here for a while but im buying a new suv and going to start building the stang for the track. so i was thinking about the cloth Rear Seat Delete kit and was reading come of the comments and was looking up "a car is required to have a metal plate installed between the passenger compartment and the trunk in case there is an accident involving the gas tank." You won't be able to race at the track, either, without this safety feature. so if i just got the Aluminum Read Seat Delete Kit would i be able to run at the track?

Yeah... I'm thinking the floor pan qualifies as a metal plate.

You might be thinking of classic mustangs... The fuel tank was part of the trunk floor, not underneath it like on ours. Therefore they needed a metal plate behind the passenger seat.
