    little g really has to get to some scales. i know he hasn't weighed his car in a long while and there has been a bunch of work done.
    should be interesting. he was only 32xx last time he scaled many many months ago if i remeber correctly.

              Doubt it will make much of a difference but maybe get used t-top frames(smashed t-tops) cut up the composite roof of a junkyard car and make lighter weight t-tops, that are rof style, or even make them out of fiberglass.

              Alot of work but I know you have one further. [img]smile.gif[/img]

                  the thing you need is to replace your rear window, sides or even windshield with percy's speedglass. says it's 50-75% lighter than glass. complete set about a grand but rear window 350.

                      This has been suggested to me many times, and I suppose I could pass it through inspection if I "bought" a window sticker, but it moves away from the spirit of a street car. Maybe when I'm low 12s and I need the extra "oomph" to get into the 11s, I'll consider it.
