I was wondering about that. What would be the proper way of doing it? Perhaps glue…but then you have the screws that hold on the titanium caps. Maybe carbon fiber in general wasn’t a good choice.

Edit: Actually I’m wrong. The hatch is bolted on to a titanium ring, which is glued to the carbon fiber body. So no hatch screws in the carbon fiber. [0]

Wouldn't they want everything on a inner sled, like a cool looking carbon rollcage, hanging from attachment points, perhaps on Titanium rings on end caps?
