Reminds me of an old story at the track. One of the competitors mentioned he had done everything he could to lighten the car to make it quicker. This guy must have weighed in at around 350lbs...could lose 100 lbs of body fat and be way ahead!

Still not sure how they shoe-horned him into a race seat...

Look at the Boxster spec racers to see how they've trimmed weight...lots of fluff on these cars. My 911 weighs in around 2100lbs...big difference in feel, with less HP than the Box.
