nice recap Alex. very nice!

 

Thanks! It'd been a while with the weather etc... but got to drive her this weekend

 

The owner of FallLine has a 996 GT3 stripped into the 26?? lbs.that I have seen.

 

does that include a full cage?

 

^youre car is one lwf away into the 2600's : ). Mike

 

Wait, Mooty's car still has the OEM flywheel?!

 

soon, people will be taking off their doors. don't need them. unless something happens..

 

yep and i also have open LSD.
waiting for donation.
you know where to sent it.
i also need ring and pinion.

 

wait, your car has doors?

 

in the cd player, yes.

 

Mine is under 2950 wet also. Full interior and a 997RS roll bar.

 

^ what is "wet"
do you mean full tank of fuel?
zero option cars with full tank and a roll bar should be 3050 ish no?
that's very very light for your car!

 

my friend told me he weigh 140 when i wasn't looking. then i made him do it again, so i can see the readout, and it was 160lbs haha

 

I don't want to strip my car, but 27xx non-stripped and the first 100lbs being fairly cheap makes me curious. What does it take to shed those 100lbs? Exhaust, wheels, battery?

Thanks.

 

My wrench Dan Aspesi, owner of Speed Gallery in Studio City, has just finished his latest 6-GT3 stripper. It's going over to Bobby Faieta's shop today to play on his dyno. He'll be testing headers vs OEM, 997 TB vs OEM, and stock DME vs. a GIAC custom program written on their dyno for a previous GT3 build. We'll weigh it sometime during the day, it's expected to weigh 2550 on fumes. I'll take some pics, it has a custom lightweight fiberglass front end and doors, CF roof with decklid and wing, and Lexan all around. He pared the wiring harness down to 6 circuits and removed the dash which is good for about 50 lbs. Any unnecessary metal like brackets, etc. have been removed. Full cage of course.
Pics and results later today....
