Yeah, don't get me wrong, I think 2800 is possible and 2700 will require some more extreme efforts. My weight is with no driver/passenger windows but with the front shield and rear glass. The rear glass could definitely lose some weight up high, which would be huge, but there's no way I'm dropping another 200 lbs without pulling every single wire, bolt, harness, and cutting out every bit of the dash that can be removed. After that the lightness gets more and more expensive.
I'm trying to slot this car into NASA Tt3 where I'll need about 30-50lbs ballast that I can have balanced in (probably a lead brick in the rear somewhere).
Wonder what the stock rear bar weighs? I might try running without it like a few others have. I'm sure it's not light...
