Weight absolutely does matter.
It's great and all that all these sports cars that weigh 3500-4000 lb can put up amazing numbers...
But who's paying for the tires and brakes that can accomplish these feats? I can afford to buy an SS or GT, but I sure as hell can't afford to track one. Consumable expenses out the ass.
