Unhook the front swaybar maybe? Spare tire and jack out of the car while racing? I would not put race gas in the car unless it is tuned for race gas, otherwise the car will run like crap.

Just read the sticky in the FAQ there is a huge list of what you can take off.
Did you empty your washer fluid, Run a 1/4 tank of gas and then bring gas with you 5 gallons. Save weight there.
Rear seat belts
DO NOT PUT RACE GAS IN YOUR CAR UNLESS ITS TUNNED FOR IT. will burn up your o2s and could cause damage to your motor if the motor runs too rich. or to lean.
Good luck.

man your welcome. Pull out the passenger seat to that saves your more weight. I have also just run my headers and y pipe and take the back half of your exahust off it weighs alot.
