19099, RE: weight reductions ...what else can be done Posted by DR1665, Dec-31-69 06:00 PM
SO theoretically, we're talking about keeping the 50lbs worth of comfort (ie; interior) and then swapping body panels/glass for close to 900lbs reduction? I would really like to see someone do this. I think the last time I tried to figure it out, to go all CF from squid was going to run in the neighborhood of about 5-7 grand, but the fiberglass is cheaper and might shave the same weight. I wonder what sort of difference you could see in the 1/4 mi with an 800lb weight reduction? Is there a calculator out there somewhere for time/hp/weight?
This has always been something I've been interested in... }(
