hmmmmmmm that is crazy. I weigh 175.... I guess if you subtract say 150 lbs from 3350 which my car weighed with me in it that would be 3200 without a cage..... 9" is say another 30 lbs... TH400 probably another 20.... but again I have lightweight k-mbr, brakes, etc...

still seems like your **** is way low... but hey i'd need to see the car before I could realize exactly how stripped it is... My car is still very much a fully interiored "street" appearing car and is pretty comfortable considering what it runs..... I'd rather make another 100hp versus completely gutting it I guess.....

Take one 186 mile Formula apart, do the suspension work, only put back what the rules say, and use lots of high dollar light weight parts.

I would think that scale was not correct. My hawk weighs 3550 with me. I have Bmr tubular k member, a arms light weight carpet light weight racing seats, light weight drag wheels, no air bags and some other things.

I have added some weight with th400 12bolt and a 6 point bar and not to mention my *** 250 but I remember weighing my car down the street from Speeds shop and it was 3750 stock with me.

That sounds about right somewhere around 3,500 with out driver.

It's not that hard to lose a couple hundred lbs in these cars and still look stock appearing.

Are those the ones you got for 1100 shipped? From who? I'll take two sets. Plus if their "race ready CNC'd" why send them to AI?
