Default Weight under 3100

My 08 base option Blue.weighed 3115 a quarter tank of fuel.On UPS truck scale.with lighter rotors,headers
weigh added Z-51 sways. Then tire weight minus 24.Clear top a few there.
So I should be under 3100, first track time with the car will be Saturday
weather permitting. Solid 425 rwhp should do 11's. Track is only 100 feet above sea level. Results soon.

My former '99 FRC with no options weighted 3020 including 4+ gallons of fuel. Unless my math is off, this car is just below 3000#. Low weight helps as I am told it has just run an 11.6@ 118 with DR's. Only has small cam (Stealth II) and Kooks headers thru factory cats/ZO6 Ti!
