my opinion...

waste but depends on where you want to go...

if that is going to be the only form of weight reduction then I wouldn't bother...

WASTE- Buy a stock battery, relocate the stock one to the trunk area for better weight distribution.

In SoCal it's not like you need one with huge amounts of CCA's, so why not get the lightweight one? They're not much more expensive.

25 to 30 pounds off the front end in one whack is pretty good in my book . . . .

I guess it all depends on how crazy you are, some people I know (myself included at times) will go crazy with weight for one race and remove everything that doesn't make the car move and try to lighten everything that does. If your like this, then get the light one, if your not, then don't bother.
