In road racing I think that losing weight, and moving weight are just as important as one another. Losing the maximum amount of weight is the ideal situation, but a lot of times, that doesn't work out in production based cars. Most of the weight you are going to be able to easily remove will be off the rear of the car. Eventually the weight difference front & rear will hurt handling more than the weight savings helps it. Moving weight to the places where you need it most while having as little effect on handling as possible can be more beneficial in some situations.
