Default Weight reduction.

For those who stripped the rear interior of their CRX, how much weight did you actually take out?

My friend (320lbs) ran my car to a 16.8 the first time I went to the track, I ran a 16.2 weighing only 170lbs. Weight DOES make a difference, it was both of our first time driving my car at the track that night.

Saves you money from buying a Shop Vac, or droping quarters in the vacumn to clean the Interior.
