The goal is 3900. Any more would be a bonus, but I'm gonna have to find over 200 lbs just to get there. Motor is home!

I've actually never weighed mine. I will be using an aluminum block so that should shed some weight

I saw Mitch's rotors, calibers, and 5 lug hubs today that madman did, I must admit they are pretty sweet and dont weigh anything!

I think your probably gonna be disappointed. It would be another $20,000 easy to get mine that light, and I'm not even sure that would do it.

Tell Mitch to send those rotors back to strange and exchange them out for the 2 piece aluminum hat floating rotors like I got. I don't think its more than $100 to upgrade and it saves more weight still.

Ya, I'm not quite at the stage you are! I'm not as worried about since all I have to do is adjust the boost controller to make enough power...
