Definitely. And I'm not a good enough driver to see any benefit from anything other than massive weight savings. IMO, if you truly want to save weight you remove things rather than replacing other things with CF.

I finally did the one thing I always joked that people should really do if they want a lighter car.. added the light weight driver. Go to the gym, people.
