My similar hard tail car weighs 1870 with a 260# driver after a pass.

The thing about bonneville is the salt is slippery and they don't want any aero drag so they add ballast to improve down force to keep from spinning the tires @ 200+ So you might want to consider ways to add weight. I'm not sure, but I think they allow water as ballast.
Good luck,the one time I was at Bonneville it had a nice laid back atmosphere.
