Default Weighed in my car, got any ideas for 1/4?

My car is 1200kg flat, or 2640lbs with me in it since i weigh 195lbs. <--- went to a local Quarry, got on the scale and some women was like.. "Should i dare even ask..." real sarcastically, ROFL.

So that means, my car is 2445lbs w/no A\C and no sparetire and tools... dang thats light!

Whaddya guys think my 1/4 mile time should be.. i still haven't taken her out, but im thinkn of goin this weekend. ill take the passenger seat out to makeup for my weight. Should be a good 30lbs?


Comptech 7lb flywheel
comptech 4-2-1 headers
AEM CAI
Lowered, with sticky toyos.

Iv personally hung with 350zs, and have beaten 50 year olds in their Infiniti G35 coupes... im hopn for some good times.

Forgot to add;

Regarding the flywheel, since its about 8lbs lighter then the stock ITR fly having less rotating mass, blah blah (briefly read about it.) would that be equivalent to almost having 80lbs less curb weight aswell? if 1lb =10lbs?

Thought id bring that up

Mine is 2420 with a half tank of gas, me @ 200 lbs, and a full cage.

1/4 mile depends a lot on weather, altitude, track conditions, driver, etc. I'm going to guess 14.8 @ 98, but you should go run it and tell us how you do.

You must still have some weight to lose, as my car is lighter than that with A/C and heavier-than-stock Recaro SRDs.

Do you still have the stock exh system? Take that off its heavy as hell and youll be quicker still at the track.

SiR99, should be.

I initially read the car is 2630lbs reading different sites and forums. I guess thats a fair answer with all equipment and a full tank of gas.

No A\C (50lbs?), no sparetire and tools(35lbs), and about only 10litres of gasoline. Don't know the approximate weight of the stock headers vs the comptech, but i doubt its significant. The flywheel is 8lbs lighter, car revs real fukkkkn fast ! plus i aftermarket pulley aswell

1200kg with me in it. 2640lbs..

PS - the A\C wasn't taken out, it wasn't included. although right now as we speak, its chilly in the daytime and a nice tilt of the window provides enough cool air.. no need for an a\c at all...

Plus i get headaches from A\C.. i know i always did in the benz, anyone else?? I tried pointing the vents at my chest, didn't help.
