Yes, I remember that article well. I bet that 360 would/could run the numbers for ever under that weight belt. Anyone remember the Cadillac and/or Chrysler New Yorker/Newport "disassembly" article? They shed about 1,500 or so pounds right down to the stripped Tin Lizzie chassis and went from a 16 second land yacht to a 13 second shell with a seat belt. Funny as hell.
Costly this all is at first, but fun and humble to your patience in the long term. I believe more than money itself, that the reason that Drag Racing has taken a popularity hit is because it has become too much of a job, not a hobby anymore. Most cats I talk to all remember just driving the cars to the track and having fun. A lightweight/featherweight can achieve that once more.
