Cool Getting ready for the track. Here at English Racing taking some weight out
So when i got on the corner scales we where heavier than i thought. With sway bar and me in it we are 2754lbs

So we yanked out the brake booster and cut some more weight out
Shooting for a 100lbs out today we shall see Me and my brother-in law are cutting away














Also going to cap some of the water to air cores to reduce weight. The ETS Water to air works awesome

cut out some of that 500lb air to water IC and you'll be good to go. If NASA built a turbocharged shuttle, that's about how big their IC would be.
