Default Weight Reduction? How much do YOU weigh?
Do the lighter guys run faster E.T.s? I weigh 245 right now, probably the lightest I'll be for the rest of my life. **** I probably weigh what two normal dudes weigh. Are there any heavy drivers out there that run pretty good e.t.s for their weight? Who’s the heaviest?

5'11" and 225 lbs here. Working on getting MY weight down, so hopefully when I start racing again end of this year/beginning of next, Race Weight can be in the 3350# range.

Gonna do some weight reduction on the 'ol Camaro as well.

Back up to 260lbs ... (6'2")
Between Christmas at the parents house and her pregnancy appetite I've gained back 25lbs of the 50 I had lost last year.
Maybe I should walk to work LOL
