Default light weight battery for race car

I would like to replace my huge battery with something lighter and smaller. PCA allows me to lose some weight this year. Any suggestions? Thanks

I use batteries designed for electric wheelchairs. No 'racing' or 'Porsche' markup that way.

I dont track my 911 but I am on a Formula SAE team and we use a braille battery. Its great. It weighs nothing compared to normal batt's, there is one issue, because of the way they are made you can not let them drain completely, if you do, you can never charge them again.

Regards
Dave
