Problem with racing and weight loss is the class you race in. If your weight goes below the lower limit you end up in the next faster class.

Its really strategic weigh loss only to the bottom of your desired class.

I love when I get into a class and consistently win 2nd place or better. Note: only 2 cars racing in that class.

Lower weight however will always result in faster acceleration, and we all love pulling some G's.

To measure that you need a lateral G meter. (IE Smart Phone with the right App.)

For street use the lightweight batteries are typically sized so that equivalent capacity simply weighs less with the newer technology batteries. Racing sized batteries is another matter.
