Don't think he gambles. Don't think he's crazy either. Still losing to the Mark X is it?

Re: unsprung weight

Seriously, I dun quite understand the logic of you trying to shave weights to oust a Mark X on the straight. If you want better power-to-weight ratio, and if you cannot increase the numerator, why not consider a ride with better power-to-weight ratio than to renovate your high-spec 330?

Just my 2 cents on mod efficiency.

seriously,mark x is not inside my list of cars to beat in a straight line drag.
a bmw 325i steptronic will be sufficient to beat it.

dont need to kill a chicken with a cow cleaver.
