Hey guys,
So last night I went to the track and ran a 12.2 3 times, and a few times the last outing. I have future mods in mind but I wanted to start a thread on weight savings.

I am aware of the Tubular K members which save 65-70 pounds and today came across tubular control arms for the cobra, would the two be compatabile for the car? The arms shave 16 pouinds off the car for a combined weight of almost 90 pouinds.

Anyone on here run both? Whick K member and or control arms do you recommend?

Does anyone know of a light weight racing battery that can handle daily driving duty as well?

I wanna put my cobra on a diet.

i have had a upr k-member and a-arms, and a team z k-member and a-arms.. I rather my team z setup over the upr, but im not sure the difference in weight between the two.

had UPR coilovers with both setups as well

UPR k-member and A-arms with UPR coilovers here but I didn't measure the weight difference nor have I weighed the car as a whole.

I have a UPR k member, MM A-arms, MM coil-overs and MM CC plates. Rides much better than stock and is whisper quiet. Plus i probably dropped 80+ pounds off the front end
