Default Weight loss

I am working on the weight issue my car has.

1. New aluminum 8.8 inch diff going in.
2. Au falcon rear control arms replaced with chromoly tube arms.
3. SFI scattershield replaced with Lighter quicktme belhousing.
4. Advan Light weight racing rims replacing the Billet rims.

This should reduce the unsprung weight by half and the overall weight significantly.

I am not sure how much fuel the car had in it when it was weighed so maybe if it had 50kgs of fuel, I will only run with enough fuel for the session next time.

Also the driver can drop about 15kgs as well!!!!
