The bigger alumalite splitter with diffusers was 4 lbs less than the original Verus unit.

Removing the side window glass, airbags, Invidia q300 SS muffler, and every interior panel other than the dash really nets some loss. I even gutted the headlights before I wrapped them for an additional 4.6 lbs loss. lol. Every bit counts.

But weight is weight.

Did you happen to weight that piece. I always looking for a few free ounces. I just had my handles off the other day I was wetsanding my CF doors. I feel like I failed for not noticing that free weight

Got out on track this weekend to shake off the dust! Thankfully my local test track is allowing members to drive under a strict social distancing policy. I signed up to bed my brakes but ended up staying most of the day and taking a second off my personal best! The Advan A052s have a amazing grip and the 100 lb diet was very noticeable. I believe there is more in it with a few tweaks.

Past few days have been busy. I am competing in a local time attack at Pineview Run. I took the win in my class and the overall fastest lap time of the day. A few of the fastest class competitors didn't make the first event. I don't expect that result to stick at every event but still a fun stat.

Also, This gem popped up on craigslist and I had to buy it. 1995 M3 that recently arrived from California. The bottom of it looks new. When I looked under the car I asked the previous owner if the control arms were replaced recently. Turns out when a car doesn't see salt everything looks new forever. As a NY resident, I was not aware of this. lol.

She is going to fill the nice weather/backup track car slot. Already bought a set of wheels and 200tw tires. Just need an Adias jump suit and I will be good to go.
