Let me/us know how "easy" it was to remove the passenger seat?
....do you have a scale? how heavy is the passenger seat?

I too like to remove some weight out of my 2004 for track days...
then put it back in after track day....

I would like to see 2 similar V1's run eachother! One with the rear seats, and pasenger seat taken out and the other with normal weight so we can see the performance advantage with the weight taken out! Anyone have any ideas how hard the pull would be from the V1 with the weight taken out?
