Man, I saw that crazy set up you went with...how's that comin along? sprayed yet? What kinda shot?

Once I get all that taken care of it will be time for some track visits, <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
I just have 100 shot jets in the kit right now. I asked Randall at NX too hook me up with some jets and he sent me jets for a 100 shot all the way to 500 <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" /> Once I can ATAP the car on the spray I will start raising the shot <img border="0" alt="[Burnout]" title="" src="graemlins/burnout.gif" />

Front support -19lbs.
Replace stock batt w/ Hawker (net) -20 lbs.
Washer bottle (empty) -1.2lbs.
Front sway -12 lbs.
There's 52 lbs. off easy.
All that before skinnies!

My passenger air bag was 11.5, But very hard to take out took 5hr pulled the dash forword 8 inches to lift air bag out. Get rid of the drive air bag would be a better idea. I trashed both airbags! Tring to get car without audio down to 3200

Sending the Formula on a diet..any tips/hints/tricks?
Any tips/hints/tricks that would help me get my pigs weight down? I've got weld rims, taken the seats out of the back..including the rear seat belt mechanisms themselves, taken off Front sway bar, pulled a lot of the sound deadner off of the back of the carpet....
I'm wondering if the bumper support is worth the time? is it that heavy? I figure anything over 10ish lbs would be worth the time...
The passenger airbag...is it easily removed? How heavy is it??
TIA!!

When we pulled the bumper supports out of Coach's car they weighed in at 17 lbs. for the front and 15 lbs. in the rear. The nuts and bolts used for them weighed around 4 ~ 5 lbs (dont remember exactly on the weights of the bolts)
Also take out that TNT bottle all its doing is slowing you down <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="gr_tounge.gif" /> (when running on motor of course) <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Re: Sending the Formula on a diet..any tips/hints/tricks?
Ey... in my mind if you drive the car on the street, leave the bumper supports there, Look else where for wait. If you want to remove one, take out the back. Ask Stumpy how much the front saved his ***. Actually, I like the back one too because when I was rear ended (~25 mph collision into my stopped vehicle) the only damage was the bumper cover and ground effects piece. But it's up to you <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
