so how did you do it joel? i'd like to drop host extra 15-20 grams . if your diet plan means running ugly spray bombs i don't think that will be enough (maybe i need to run parma bodies too...)

funny enough, racing today (still saturday to me...) running 13.5t 1s w/ a BlackArt "spray bomb" body my car was coming in at 746g. i ran a speed 12 too .. but w/ a nice paint job my car came in at 749g.

we were running at Horsham today. Sal Amato took down TQ w/ this Rev5L, I was sitting 4th. Sal took home the main, and i threw away a potential 2nd place finish -- blowing out of 2nd place but posting the 2nd fastest hot lap. I'm still a bit off in gearing and setup for 13.5t. After gearing down for the main I shaved .3s of my prior best lap time to hit a slow 10.4s lap.
