Losing 70+ lbs in a couple weeks 1971 911S

Well with the holidays past its time to shed some weight. My 1971 911S was lean to begin with. Sitting at a fighting weight of 2052 lbs.

At first I could not really think of what to remove/change to really make a difference.
Before I knew it I was finding small changes that added up. It becomes a fun game
but at times expensive. I have realized over my years of racing that there is a $ cost per lbs. It is about $100 per pound so removing unneeded pieces is a big plus. That being said over the next couple weeks I have new parts coming to get to my goal of 1981 lbs. Some are free and some are expensive.

Here it is in action at Rennsport
