Hey guys I want to take off weight on my car like as much as possible I already have tire Jack and spoiler off what else can I take off and how much weight is that

I'm going to the track in about a week so I'm just trying to get at least under 9 seconds in the 1/8 my old 04 gt got 9.2 so I'm guesing that goal isn't impossible all I have done to the car is intake and x pipe and flows

Taking out the passenger seat will shave some dead weight.

the spoiler really doesnt weigh that much. but taking out all the seat besides drivers will help. take out the center console. pretty much remove the interior. not really all that much else you can do with out really getting into it

The spoiler may not weigh much, but it does provide a bit of wind resistance.

Ripping out that heavy-ass Mach 460 sound system will save a bit of weight. It doesn't sound all that good anyway. But probably the easiest thing though is to not show up with a full fuel tank, just enough to keep your fuel pump cool through your runs.
