Oh but my cousin knows a guy down the street who's brother works at this place where his boss has this radical camaro with a 4 bolt main corvette motor. Double hump heads, bored out, 3/4 race cam, pop up pistons, lakewood traction bars, balanced and blueprinted, and it has a positraction. They put $100 on the dash and no one could grab it. Guy has never taken it to the track because its too fast, way faster then this car........

^^^prepare for that story.......

Blows me away that these cars are getting into 25.5 territory on a 275 while still being well behaved on the street, with A/C, getting 18mpg on e85, oem trans, etc

Would be interesting to see what this car would do with some weight out of it, but no need currently when you are the fastest guy around and still have power left on the table to use.

i'm always fighting the weight reduction thing,

there is a bunch there that we could take out, but i'm just not ready to go there yet.

I don't know if he could pull out 1,000, but I know he could pull 500....but then it wouldn't have all that street car stuff.

Terry needs to make buddies with a carbon fiber body panel manufacturer and start replacing fenders, hoods, bumpers, etc. You'd not lose any creature comforts but lose some decent weight.

If there are still smaller pulleys to go to, there is no need for the weight reduc except for making things easier on the driveline. Getting 500lbs out starts to get pretty expensive, even with losing some creature comforts. Might as well save that step for when people start getting closer to him in ET :)

How fun is it stopping 3800lbs from 160mph without the chute?

He has a chute, not sure if he has used it or not.

I've seen carbon hoods and decklids, but does anyone make carbon doors for these cars yet? The Fox doors are good for around 200lbs IIRC.

Yes, but they are $2k And for a street car like this one, it wouldn't be an option as he would loose his power windows, speakers, etc. I use the factory doors with factory glass, but with all of the internals cut out--but with the factory interior panel still in place, so it still looks stock.

How much weight did that save you, and are the windows stationary now or still able to roll down?

I want to cut weight but it would be nice to have power windows to roll them down on hot days while waiting in the lanes
