The last time I weighed mine, it was 2190 with a full tank of gas. Since then, I've removed a bunch of undercoating, installed 911R door handles, removed the defroster vents, removed wiring circuits I wasn't using, removed the front and rear cable releases, removed hood and trunk latches, removed the e-brake, and drilled a few more speed holes.

Prior weight loss stuff included a Krikey race seat; removed all interior panels and carpet & rear seats; fiberglass hardtop with lexan windows, fiberglass doors, hood and bumpers; lightweight battery; removed all of the HVAC stuff; Felt dash; no radio; no glove box;

The car has a full cage.

I have a fuel cell and carbon fiber front fenders waiting to be installed, and more undercoating to remove. I also want to replace the rear quarters with fiberglass or carbon fiber. Some lighter wheels would also be nice.
