I have one that is slightly under "thickness" for weight.
and its not mandatory (unless your rules require it) to have the bracing straps.

with the proper mounting hardware, they are good for over 150... I take this number from watching the shop that sold me mine and their cars that actually do this regularly.

I've got pics of mine in my "vintage" thread in my sig.

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/agree.gif) I've not have any probs with mine in street or track use thus far. I'll install alum. straps if 'somebody' makes me per a rule book I care about, but otherwise it really does not seem necessary.
