its actually not worth the sweat, of taking that crap out if you're only a 'mediocre racer'. You really won't feel any signifigant gains from it. Of course a combination of small parts here and there added up will show gains, but the you get into full-race car specs. You can easily remove other heavier items such as the bumper reinforcements, rear interior, extra paneling, carpeting, replace your hood with a carbon fiber unit, chuck A/C & P/S if applicable....
