Race weight???
Race weight??? Ok guys I'm trying to guesstimate my race weight cuz it seems like all the scales around here are down.
Here's a run down on the car and weight reduction I've done.
2000 m6 SS
t-tops
9" w/spool and 35 slpine axles
PST 3.5" ds
UMI k-member with UMI lower a-arms and stock upper a-arms
UMI tunnel mount t/a, lcas, phb, sfcs, and rear drag bar
Exhaust dumped at y-pipe
VFN 3" SS hood
Billet Specialties streetlites 15x4s and 15x10s
MT 26x6 SR radials in front and 28x10" ET Drags in the rear
no a/c
no hvac/evap
no wipers/motors
no washer fluid tank
no air/egr
no abs
no cruise
no bumper supports front/rear
no front bumper supports
no stereo/speaker/amp
no spare tire/jack
no front sway bar
no rear seat
no rear belts
no pass seat (driver's seat is a Kirkey)
no airbags pass/driver
And fwiw I weigh 185lbs and the car will have 1/4 tank of gas at the track.

Any other opinion/thoughts? Also what else do I need to do to get this thing down arond 3000lbs with me in it? I'm thinking of doing the rear glass over the winter.
