Power is nothing without control. Weight is enemy of performance, handling and braking.

The weight of it

It's only lighter due to stripping it down to prep for paint.

It's the doors that kill an rx8 in weight as the rear form the b pillar.

Cage it to keep the torsional stiffness and do what clive did with grp doors.

If i can get this plastic pedalo down to 800kg I'll be happy, but I still keep fitting the car with creature comforts lol
