  • some weight reduction questions

    If i get a fiberglass front end, hood, both doors, trunk, bumper,and remove spare tire and jack how much would you think it would lower my quarter mile time? note:i probably will find more stuff to take out / replace to make it lighter but what do you think? and is buying all that fiberglass worth it for the ammount of 1/4 time gains i will get out of it or what?

    pretty sure its every 1,000 lbs lost = 1 sec lost in the 1/4 mile
    so, for every 100 lbs you cut, you go .1 sec quicker...
    but im not sure how much less all that added up would weigh.
    hope that helps :):tup:
