i don't know the rules of the show; but if it was my car i would have gutted it to high heaven. dropping weight it free and can really help on the track.
also removing the belt is an old trick. it will free up about 10whp; but you have to put it back on once you complete the race. as long as you watch your temp gauge, there is nothing wrong with pull the belt for a 1/4 run.
