fuck that is awesome. I wish I could drop 300 lbs off my car total. Get it down to 2950 or less without me in it.

How much did your car weigh the last time you checked it?

My father in-law cut up my rear rotors, he has a cnc in his garage. I need to weigh them to see how much came off.

Those rear rotors look sweet! So those are just scalloped stockers?

So that was the weight before these last few weight reductions? Or is that as of today?

Rotors looks awesome. Cool that you made your own!

So 8's next yr? It's gonna be a long winter I hope you have no plans to change to an auto.

That was the old weight before any weight reduction. Goal is to get it under 2500. It will remain a shifted car.

That is light!

Badass, that thing will be crazy at 2500lbs.

I couldn't get the tank anodized they said that I would have bare aluminum spots on the inside of the tank. I ordered a different style tip over valve that I could seal up. No big deal, I also added an an6 so I could drain the fuel in the winter or when it sits too long.
