is there a such thing as a 10 pound racing seat?

Or whats the lowest weight you could get? I'm looking for comfort, so plastic seats are out of the question. Just looking to loose alittle more weight.

I have carbon fiber seats that weigh 12 lbs each. This is the seat alone. When you add the brackets and sliders on the weight goes up.
