So after the last outing with the shop car I was really happy with the results and how well the car is surviving and lasting. I have then decided that at the moment I dont want to make any more power with the car or have any plans to upgrade to a bigger turbo! I’ve then decided to play around with weight reduction! Why? Because it’s a cheap and easy way to go fast! Also the lighter the car the faster it’ll go and at the same time it’ll be less prone to break! The car at the moment is running 8.1s consistently at about 174mph-176mph. Right now the car is weighing in at 2,390lbs and roughly 2,600lbs with me in it! According to the data I’ve gathered from the internet every 100lbs should net a .13-.17 second drop off the et! Also about a 1-2mph rise in speed ! So let’s put the math to the test and start the weight reduction and see how fast we can go!
