It could have been a tenth rather than a full? Makes a little more sense. I never did any of the weight reduction stuff, not into it for a DD car.

Like I said, I could be (and obviously was) wrong. It's been so long since I've been into the racing scene. That whole "if you don't use it, you'll lose it" cliché comes to mind.

yep, roughly .1 sec for every 100 lbs. in this power/weight class.
