I replaced my Torq Thust D and Sportsman tires (38.8lbs)on the front end. I replaced them with Draglites and Moroso DS-2 front runners(26.6lbs).= 24.2lbs lost.

Now I need to loss 600-800 lbs on the car to get it into the 9's Let see Liteweight front/rear brakes,aluminum block,rack and pinion and glass fenders,doors and Lexan windsheild. That should about do it.

OK I get that but what are you using for brackets now. Did you just decide to remove the bumper before you ripped it off or did you come up with something lighter.

Stop with all the secrets. I am overweight and need all the diet tips I can get!

:spam dragon: what i did was i used the 2 outer brackets and removed the 2 inner ones and just filled in the bumper holes with the bolts.
i am going to plasma cut the outer brackets next week to really lighten them up iike on my 65 plymouth. you have to feel how heavy those 2 brackets are.

Funny you are messing with the brackets because I have thought about getting a few aluminum straps and making some but didn't know if it was worth the trouble.

You didn't by chance weigh them did you?
