That's encouraging news, NO SLO PK - that's the first I've heard of SVT's in Cali with no markup. My car actually weighs closer to 30XXlbs; I had read somewhere that the '03 Cobra weighs like 3800. As far as how I lost the weight, it was mostly the tubular K-member, control arms, coil-overs (-80lbs for those things), hollow aluminum sway bar (-8 lbs), and pulling out the back seat and spare tire, jack, etc. when I race. All that weight off the nose really helps the car turn in and is better weight-transfer for launching too (I need all the help I can get in the launch area with my stiff suspension). Next up maybe a glass hood to take some more off the nose...
