In my mki, I need it to be usable as a daily-driver, but I still made some effort: I have no A/C, a BT 20v, lightweight flywheel, super-light exhaust (the whole thing weighs like 5lbs), light wheels, no trunk/frunk garbage, removed jack/spare, lighter steering wheel, removed a couple useless bits from the interior like the center console storage box, and I'm also ripping out the security system. I'll try to get a weight on it as soon as I have it up and running, but I'm hoping for somewhere around 2100lbs, 2200 tops.

There is a guy on here racing solo that got his down to 1820lbs I believe. It doesnt even have a dashboard anymore, just a sheet of aluminum with a tach. I believe he is running the stock 16v.
Full race? Yes.
Street Driven? No.
