My road 512TR weighed 3,660 wet. So you saved even more weight than you thought.....must be fun on the track!!

We weighed the car at WG and it was 2950 wet, Have not weighed the road car but I imagine that weighs around 3500, maybe a little more. SO we dropped at least 600# and you can really feel it in the acceleration and handling and braking

Here are some photos of the journey thus far. Here is what the car looked like when I bought it after it had wrecked at Watkins Glen several years ago
