Yeah I hear ya onthe lightweight issue... but what does the support weigh, like 2 lbs?

Besides- the more weight you have in front of the front wheels, the better your car will handle.. not to mention it will help with traction.

I know of several people who have put their battery actually in front of the front wheels to help with traction/handling.

So, I dont think a 2-lb bumper support will hurt you at all. Plus it will make the car look better.

actually the front bumper support weights in at a good amount...i think 30 lbs. I weighed it so long ago.

Also i know the extra weight will help, but 30 lbs will help me more in time then traction. Also i use slicks when running so it doesn't matter really.

yeah, 12's is alright, but i will have an 11 sec pass real soon. Just installing some more things and doing a couple dyno runs to get everything tuned in. And i will have my 11 sec pass, on a internally stock KLZE, with bolt ons.
