The track shocks are the same weight (external reservoirs) and Mikey tracks his car (well, once as far as I'm aware and he keeps talking about tracking it on the US-orientated forums ).

Mikey's not biting - must be under the car drilling holes in the chassis to get that weight saving

Come on Mike, update us all!

I'd love to see some pictures too!

Having said that, i've not scanned the whole of this thread, just the first few and last few pages so apologies if you've done this recently!

PL and Esem - don't forget I now have the power to delete your posts

Yep you are about right on the weight savings so far
It weighed in at 1279 kg last time I corner weighted it (with my weight taken off) which seems a bit high!

Off
Airbox and misc bits ~4kg
Nitrons ~8kg
CE28's ?
Spare wheel ?
Exhaust ?
Radiator & single fan ?

On
SC kit ~20kg
Sub woofer ~10kg (since taken out )
two lower braces and STB ~3kg
Amp ~1kg

Others for later
Bucket seats (just being recovered)
Header
decat
what else with out going mad!?
