Yep, the advice and info I was given:
1. The fans are there to kick on when you are stuck in traffic with no airflow.
2. On track, the (non-moving, idle) fans may be counterproductive because they impede clean airflow!
3. You obviously want to lose the weight. (*)
(*) Depends on what you are aiming for and what other weight loss you have achieved. As a "garage build" Spec Boxster, my car will probably struggle to get down to minimum legal weight. So the fans should come out for sure. However, I am leaving the passenger side fan in for two reasons: A) If I drive the car to the track or to the shop, having it there for situation (1) above is good for peace of mind. B) If I do get down to minimum weight, it was suggested by one expert that the fan's weight low on the right side of the car may be useful, because the driver's weight tends to make the left side of the car heavier. On the other hand, one person advised me that the car will overheat on track if either fan is there to block the clean airflow; however, many of us can attest that that's not a problem we've encountered.
