Default 00 camaro z28...

hey guys. i have a friend who has a 00 z28 t-top m6. he has done alil weight reduction to it. he took his front bumper support off, took his a/c out, and his front sway bar. he also took all of his carpet and has the front 2 cloth seats in. he has longtubes and true duals. what do you think his weight is? we dont have any weigh machines around here, closet one is at the track which is over an hour away. thanx.

alright, he just went and weighed his, someplace on the military base. he has a slip for it too. he weighed in at 3180. thats is just ridiculous. thats almost as light as a vette. i didnt think those few things taken off would make that much of a difference.

i have never had problems with that, but then again i never got slips or anything id simply just go on see the weight and go off. no one ever seemed to care. and the elevators, i used to live in a town of 400 people, and i had the fastest car there, everyone knew who i was so no one cared!
