Agreed, jnoiles at least has taken the entire interior out of his car when he drives it on the track which is probably the easiest thing you can do on a modern car to get the weight down.Thinking about it, my brakes would be more effective if I wasn't so chunky. Has anybody thought about losing excess body weight in order to improve braking? It'll be cheaper than those enormous discs and calipers, for a start!
I think things like superlight wheels, plastic windows and composite panels etc etc would be a little bit of a waste on something as low powered as a 500.
