Big change -> he has secretly replaced the fuel pump with Folger's Crystals. Let's see if anyone can tell the difference.

I've decided to convert mine back to a DD and race in NASAs spec Z class in a 350z, so I don't need to worry about this anymore. Probably only one more track day in my 370, hopefully. Depends on how quick my CRZ sells.

Six weeks until I have a large magazine shootout to compete in. 84 lbs. of weight savings from not having to run a full tank would certainly be nice.

84 lbs in weight savings offset by 10-20 lbs of equipment

10-12 lbs. of equipment that doesn't slosh around and hopefully can be placed in a position where the effects of that 10-12 lbs. can be minimized or even be a small advantage.
