$100 says the 2 fastest ET's goes to 2 red NA cars

I'll take that bet.

Do both cars have slicks?

How bout lightest? My B13 is at 1,990lbs without me in it now, verified trucker scale. And I still have both front door panels/dash and headliner/stereo/speakers in the car. everything else is gone though.

Sure there will be lighter ones there but my car is actually legal to drive on the streets, lol.

No you're right.. it's very simple: first car to reach a pre-determined and set finish line wins. Just like a horse or dog race. Doesn't matter if Dog #2 was just starting to make a move for a pass at the very end, and actually passed the finish line going 2-4MPH faster than Dog #1 as long as Dog#1 beat him to it.

btw I can go food shopping again for u guys like I did for 2012 Ohio. I spent like $180 on hotdogs hambugers condiments and buns for you animals and they were eaten up in 15 min. lol

Oh ok. I was disappointed when I discovered that the entire dash only weighs 10lbs. Sorta disappointed but sort of not because that's less weight I've been hauling around, but also, less to free up. I was expecting 35-40lbs and it was so light I just re-installed it. I think my single DIN head unit was heavier.

Going from everything in the car w/o any weight reduction to removing 380lbs it honestly felt like I had put in bigger cams or something. Much less pedal effort to brake too. But it's only a 1 seater then

the back mostly foam seats weigh almost nothing, the fronts are kind of heavy.
