Well scince my car is a DD I do back seats empty trunk half tank of gas and I have a set of cut door with lexan windows but I also have a moon roof so driving with the windows closed isn't to bad when it's hot also I sometimes borrow my boys slicks and skinnies plus I drive around with a light weight corbeau drivers seat so that helps also.

FWIW, a buddy of ours surprised us at the track this past summer. He was running his all motor VE. The car went 13.6-8(something like that). He took out the extra crap he had in his trunk like tools, jack, 2 rims/tires he drives on the street. Figure about a hundred pounds of shit give or take. The car was then running consistent 13.3's. I've heard the same thing as you Aaron. Who knows, lol.

Once the weather warms up I'm going to remove the dash and pull out any unnecessary weight like a/c crap and firewall blanket. Carpet is coming out then breaking out the cutoff wheel and cutting away the rear area of the car since I have a roll bar. Spare wheel well is going bye bye.

For a quick track day, we always removed seats, door panels, jack, spare and any random crap bouncing around.

Hard top car Cory? Did you do any cutting inside? That is pretty damn light.
