This might be my next mod!

Weight saving mod.

Since weight matters so much in light cars (S2000, Elise), I wonder if car mags should start posting the weights of their drivers...

haha clever... but if you think about it... it probably makes a significant difference... a 120lb driver vs a 220 lb driver

I've always found it funny when I see someone that is obviously very much overweight, yet they spend thousands on carbon fibre accessories.

Invest in yourself first! It helps you on and off the track!

No kidding. I went on Atkins last year and lost some 30 odd pounds. The seats don't feel so tight anymore!

My top speed on the track has increased by some 4kmh....

I could probably stand to lose another 20 lbs, and at that weight I'd probably looked like a ripped wrestler. A bonus!
