understood, it looks like you weight loss would be minimal and not make much different with everything needing to be added.

btw...no hard feelings

You are right in regards to weight of the driver. I would think that if you had a 300lb dude regardless of whether it was obesity or muscle mass that would make a difference compared to a 200lb or 150lb dude for sure especially considering that it would change the aerodynamics depending on how stiff a suspension you have. I have seen some cars on the roads that "sag" quite a lot now that I think about it when there is a hefty person on either side.
