Those are dry weights. Doesn't include gas, driver, oil, or fluids.

 

A general rule of thumb in drag racing is that for every 100lbs of weight removed, your ET will be reduced by approximately 1/10th of a second.

just as the say in Mythbusters : "if its worth doing, its worth overdoing" haha, woohoo

 

Curb weight is supposed to include all fluids being full, but no driver, passengers, or cargo.

Usually specifications say curb weight & not dry weight.

 

x2
curb weight is all fluids. dry weight is without fluids.

 

I got those numbers from MSN.com. I don't really know how accurate they are or if it is inclusive of gas and fluids
When I lose the 60lbs I need to this year, my car will be faster[sm=gears.gif]Haha!

 

Hmm...I got cf trunk, hood, nothing in the trunk, lost the drum brakes, light weight rims. Soon a light weight seat(s) and 5spd swap and no more sunroof.

 

tell your signifigant others that they can't ride with you since it will slow your car down and hurt your fuel economy. 150 lbs/19.7 = 7.6 hp, more than most SRI's generate. So there you have it, no more passengers! *L*

Pretty much everything I listed... And I doubt the A/C system weighs 80+lbs....
