yeah mine was at 3190# with 210-215# me in it, I have taken more out since and will be taking even more out before spring, looking to get below 3100 with me in it by April and that is without spending money on all the lighweight stuff like k-member, brakes, and etc...

My Camaro is 3090 with a 6 pt, one seat, major weight reduction, a T400, and a 9". I could do front and rear brakes, front k member, front upper and lower control arms, and a little reduction here and there to get the car to around 2950 but that would be about it and then it would look crappy.

My Formula is maybe 3200 and it has all the lightweight stuff, but has a 65 lb turbo and and the intercooler hanging off the front of it, and a 10 pt.
