Yes lighter the better. I was on FABO looking what some a bodies weigh. It looks like a lot of them are around 3000lb for a more race setup. I'm thinking that shouldn't be to hard to hit.
MY car is mini tub with ladder bars. Its a dart. It can fit a tru 10.5 and I run a 275 on a 12" rim. It weighs 3000 with me in it, Its got a full stock K frame and front suspension . Glass hood, trunk, doors, bumpers. Proglass lexan. Its a t400, BB, 9 inch rear.
A duster mini tubbed will fit a 10.5 W that's plenty of tire. Concentrate on cutting off all the hitchikers, anything not needed get rid of it !
