AC103-7 (online) has much info about the weight rules.
Thanks for that. I am currently running calculations for my altitude +1000' which is right at 2300' msl. So, if I am reading the description correctly, the airspeeds can be corrected for a standard atmospheric day at sea level. This will help a bit on the wing area required to meet stall speed requirements, as with the somewhat thinner air here, the q (dynamic pressure) value is lower requiring more wing area to produce the same lift at sea level.

So, apparently I can suffer the higher stall speed due to thinner air. However, that doesn't help with performance at altitude either. I think, with everything engineered, there will be a trade off.
