Maybe the classic of all-time.
Guy comes to the track with (2) helmets, both identically painted.
Leaves one on the passenger seat during a pre-race weigh-in.
The helmet,,,,,is filled with 'lead', the thing weighed a good 100 lbs. plus.

On an episode of 'American Muscle Car' Hubie Platt talked about having a helmet bag full of lead in his Thunderbolt.
I used to race with a Buick wagon stocker guy who had mufflers under his wagon that were full of lead. 13 second 350 2bbl car would pull the front wheels about 3 feet. LOL!
