^ Not removing a single thing from the car, iron block, adding a mild steel cage, giant stereo system, and weighing 350lbs would be my guess.
I see people complain or almost brag about how heavy their car is in threads all the time. Then, you ask them how they got it that heavy and those are the general answers.

Well, I figured as much on some of those, but still seems a bit heavy. But, I guess if you add it up, comes out about right, especially if he has added a 9" or Dana 60. But damn 3900LBS...that's alot of weight.

Damn that's heavy. Where did you ADD weight (I see teh cage) but what else???
I just took a customers 98 M6 Formula (fully loaded, nothing gutted), 1/4 tank of gas, nitrous bottle, and 17's, and with me in it (220 LBS) Car went 3530.
I see you have lightweight wheels, and PROBALY aftermarket suspension(ie lighter) than stock stuff, so.....where is your weight coming from????
