As part of my AX weight loss program I removed the bumper "tits" off my 74 today. Thats a good 8-10 lbs gone. Pulled the rear heater fan and few other things too. ...and that firewall insulation mat is incredibly heavy! I'm easily up to 100 lbs + off the car now. The KH header and Supertrapp muffler really shed a ton of weight from the stock system.
Fibergalss decks and bumpers will be here soon too. I'm starting the South Beach Diet this week as well and hope to lose 50 lbs. By the end of the season I should easily be down 200 lbs (driver + car) from where I started just last month. I'm definetly slipping down the slope to a dedicated AX car now.

I just dont know if I take all this classing stuff seriously enough yet. I could run fun class in everything I do and still have a blast. But then I think maybe as I get into this ax/track thing more I might take classes more seriously. I do like the rating system on the GGR website. I just like the idea of the torque I'd get from a bigger T4. I have spent most of my sports car driving years in great handling cars with real wimpy engines (I started in a Hillman Imp with a 997cc engine). Granted I have learned how to go fast without much power, but I want a car that really challenges me and a 2300 cc just sounds cool. |
