Message	I am pretty sure the Paul Bailey one is much lighter. What you can also do is cut out all the stuff from doors and etc. Really there is only so much you can do a street car if you can get your car to around 3200lbs or you would be doing great. Anything else after that and you are cutting off to much. Personally I wouldn't worry about you can only set yourself up to win certain types of races. If you want to win just drag races then tub out the rear cut everything off replace all glass with lexon. If a guy with a comes upto you with a full drag car just say hey thats cool and all but I like my AC and tunes :-) A good example of a faster Street Car is SW's he ran what a 9.58 in the 1/4 :-) I hear his new car will be even faster.
