Just VFN glass hood, convo pro drag wheels with all season tires, and ac compressor and condenser is off the car for now and magnaflow bullet with turndown, QA1's. The SFC,LCA's,LCA relocation brackets added weight. I bet with buffer,oil,tire and jack it would be in the 3200's. I need to add the bmr k-memeber and remove the sway bar lol oh and i just filled my windsheild washers fluid up lol

This is also with no driver. Car still has everything in it, A/C, leather, stereo, bass tube and amp

I wont say what Mine weighs with me in it. But I would kill to be 250 pounds....
Anyways, thats not to bad. Camaros are heavier on average, even with same options. and I have a fully loaded 12 bolt and man this thing is heavy. With 385 rwhp I trap 113. I got a buddy with a little more power (405ish) in a camaro, VERY same drivetrain 6 speed 12 bolt, but weighs maybe 165 trapping 118 so beleive me weight makes a difference.

damn not bad for a non gutted DD. I am starting weight reduction on mine now. No real light weight money mods only freebies and i'm probably near 3350 with my 200 lb a$$ in the car. T/A's are heavy

Like said, Yup, you gotta work for it, and having a better platform (see Camaro) will help and making sure it stays a Aluminum block will help too. Most people need to spend $$$ at that point and also the car has been basically totally gutted.
When it comes to racing where driver is factored in, getting the most capable and lightest driver is a very important thing.
In a race, the jockey sometimes counts as much as the horse.
