No worries! Didn't take it that way. I think sometimes we get a little too caught up with wheel weights- I'm not going to be competing at any serious level and in reality reducing this driver's weight will save more time around a track/course than a pound on my wheels!!!!

When I finally get around to removing a wheel/tire I'll weigh it and post it here again for all those weight weenies out there.
