Wish I could, but I got a few things to take care of out here today. Going to a car show here in town. Same thing right?

If brad goes with you to the track, tell him to hit brendon up. Brendon will probably be at the car show with us if you guys want to stop by.

I got my 2002 Z28 A4 leather,ASR,Cruise Control,Stock wheels and tires,1/2 tank of gas.Spare tire and jack and front sway bar and brackets removed.FRA,SLP Y,SLP LM1, Added weight UMI STB,UMI SFC's.. IT weighted 3400 even.

When I do LT's/ORY/Stall It should weight lighter because the factory stall is heaver than a aftermarket one. LT's/ORY is lighter then Manifolds/Cats..

I know my 17x11 w/ 315s weigh a hell of a lot more than my autocross 17x9, 275s, which is not small either. Damn rear wheel/tire combo probably weighs 100 lbs itself.

This is the stuff that adds up over time. Such as my front rotors are ATE with about twice as many vanes cast into them as OEM....it's heavier as well. Add in the fact I'm a vert and keep spare supplies in the trunk, I bet I'm way up there. Add the nitrous kit and I bet with me in it is around 3875. I'm jelous of you 3300-3400lb guys.

It's funny seeing 3400 lbs and not thinking "skinny crack head of car" compared to cars today. And they're only 8-10 years old or so.

I just got my Z28. Only mods will be suspension and weight reduction. Weight reduction is awesome. Better handling, better acceleration, better, braking, better gas mileage, no loss in daily drivability.

Sub 3000 is the long term goal once I get another daily drive.r
