Just say you save 50Kg of weight, is it really going to make any difference in the real world, I know it does in theory.

Isn't just a massive waste of time and money to save what would probably be a 0.5 second, and only then if driven at 100% of the potential performance?

I would expect lighter wheels and better rubber to make the most difference

it all adds up. means very little when you are having fun, but if really trying to get the times down (which some sad-oos do) 50kg makes a diffenrence to power to weight, tyre life/grip, braking
