Re: How light can you get?
3600 + right now in C/SA
69 428 CJ Mustang Might could get to 3200 if I lose all the ballast both bolted and welded in, passenger seat, fold down back seat, hood, front bumper, and shaker assembly.

Re: How light can you get?
I can get my old wagon down to 3700 if I take myself and the groceries out!

Re: How light can you get?
Tried staying inside for a couple of weeks and noticed my tan had faded somewhat. I'm figuring with about a year staying indoors I can get as light as I'm going to get. Not sure but I believe that them folks up in Alaska go from tan to really light and then back again with them different months of light. Hope this clears up this post. I go outside as often as I can here in Florida, I do not want to be light, I've been weighting for summer. Can't weight much longer.

Re: How light can you get?
68 Camaro 3040 race ready for F/CM with wheelie bar, single 16v turbo start battery, 3 sp. i could drop under the minimum (2975) with my lipo battery, the glide and no wheelie bars. i also have just bought a set of Aluminum body shocks i believe are lighter than the steel ones they will replace. The only way i could loose another 120 lbs off the race weight of the car would be to put my wife in it!

Re: How light can you get?
Bobby Bender says you guys are featherweights ! This is as light as "Fat Girl "gets.
His rear axle weight is more than my Corvette weighs with me in it !! The rear weight bias is something most Super class racers would die for!
