RE: Weight question.
Do you notice a performance difference after another person jumps into or out of your car? I don't
Yea there's probably a measurable 1/4 mile difference, but it's so small it's hardly noticable. And the fun of driving a vert far outweighs the puny drop in performance [8D]

RE: Weight question.
Actually for every 100lbs less u have in ur car from stock, u gain a tenth in the 1/4mile.
BTW 1 tenth in the 1/4 = +10HP too.
