here is a 1/4 mile caculator.

enter your weight it's 3424 i believe
and your crank HP 300


you get 13.94

add 100 pounds and you get:
14.07

you lose .13 .. a little better than a tenth.

100 pounds is typically worth a tenth. The slower you go the more of a difference the weight makes. The faster the car is the less of a difference it will be.
