You'll need a weight waiver, because although the writer of the ad may have thought calling it a "4000 pound beast" was a humorous exaggeration, these are actually more like 4700 pounds or so. I don't think the judges will worry about the price.

you could trim a lot of metal out of that. Also pulling the big block and going with a small block would reduce the weight, ditching the big drum brakes for disc.
