That is amazing.  You got to get it on a scale to check for accuracy.  Truely amazing.

If I can get mine to 2700#'s over the winter I'll be very happy.

without a steering column and a wiring harness, its going to be hard to steer. that rollbar will add some weight, too. and race weight is w/ driver.

Of course,I will add what weight when i collect all the parts im waiting on and adjust the total acordingly.What has been removed will be replaced by something lighter in all cases.There is still plenty of weight for me to remove.


Im working on car weight not race weight.
