It is no secret that weight is a huge factor in any type of performancebased sport. Motorsports and drag racing in particular are no exception.

When dropping weight from your race car, it is always best to start with the low hanging fruit in terms of cost to benefit. This type of weight loss usually includes lightening the body, chassis, removing components, etc.

Once the obvious items are addressed, dropping weight becomes a bit more of a challenge. Instead of finding 5lbs here and 10lbs there, it’s more like 1/2lb or 10 ounces at a time. Sure, you can spend thousands of dollars on titanium and carbon fiber parts and Tim McAmis Performance Parts would be more than happy to sell them to you.
