What's the average weight?
 
How light are the more serious 98+ drag cars. And how light can these cars get being back halfed, caged ect..

I'm trying to get light as possible but I'm not sure how it will work out. As of right now it has.
back halfed with a four link
9 inch
Aerospace drag brakes all around
Tubular k member and upper & lower control arms
Kirkey race seat
all chrome moly cage
3.5 welds in front
12 welds in rear
lexan windshield
lightweight radiator
wolfe door panels
Drag race column
completely gutted dash
everything I could think of to lighten it up. Anyone with similar setup have a weight?
