Re: Inexpensive Mod: Improves Acceleration, Braking, Handling, AND Mileage

I grew up drag racing. Reduction of 100 lbs of sprung weight ( or 10 lbs of unsprung weight) = 0.1 ET in the 1/8th mile. My Daddy was a big man & had fast cars, but also said that it was easier to save up and spend the $ on good parts than loose the weight
