[DeTomaso] 19 pound rear deck

[Ken Green]

I'm not sure what carbon fiber rear decks weigh, but I received a Barotex rear deck today made by Lilo Ben Zicron (who owns the highly modified Mangusta race car at recent events) and it weighs 19 pounds without hardware.  Barotex is suppose to have some strength and durability advantages over carbon fiber.  The shape looks very good, very flat surfaces, and it is very rigid.  The hinge locations and lock still need to be worked out.
 
Lilo developed barotex and is in the process of marketing it for various uses.  There is some info here:   http://www.prweb.com/releases/2008/08/prweb1201154.htm
