Jeff did you ever weigh your car after the diet plan?

Just wondering what it was weighing in now since you dropped a lot of weight over the winter, I did similar stuff. How's the new combo running?

The '90GT weighed in at 3124# after the first qualifying pass at Bradenton. We dropped the rear bumper assembly and weighed 3080# on the next trip across the scales. Since Bradenton I've been doing some major weight loss activities including; change to manual brakes (~12#), remove door beams (~35#), switched seats (~50#), March alternator bracket kit (~5#), removed air bag sensors & wiring (~5#) and Lexan sunroof (yet to be determined). There's some other small stuff in there, but I figure I've pulled about 120# from the car since Bradenton. I've even lost 6 or 8 pounds myself! I'm going to dig a little deeper this weekend to see if there's anything else that can come out. I'd like to be below 2950# with me in the car (~165# myself).

I hope to be around 2950 in my 91GT as well me being 175lbs. I have JAZ racing seats, no back seat, no deadonered except under the headliner. I did keep the padding on my brand new front carpet though. My AC, PS and every thing that was extra weight up front is gone, all emissions equipment is gone,etc... I was just checking out your site and it seams thos cars are getting pretty damn fast for Trophy Stock, good luck this season. I hope to have mone running 23rd-30th I was going to run Pure Street at Maple Grove but my cam is way out of spec....everything else fits but my cam is .070+ too high in lift, so I guess I'll be running open comp, time to go register with the good ole NMRA.
