Drag Car Weights....

It's a bit of a dance with weight reduction because you typically counteract some reductions with some sort of safety/rigidity equipment like a cage and frame ties. Obviously it doesnt go pound for pound, and you still save plenty, but cages and such aren't light.

My 74 is 3050 with me in it. It has a cage, ties, no2 bottle and still has a steel rear bumper. Also has the rear seat and full interior

My weight savings include... glass hood and front bumper. Aluminum wheels, manual steering, aluminum heads and intake, plastic front racing seats, fuel cell, aluminum radiator, removed carpet padding and sound deadeners and wiper motor.

Someone told me the 73 and up cars were a few hundred pounds heavier than earlier models due to govt crash test intervention. So hopefully you should have an advantage on me. Hopefully that gives you some comparison to my setup.
