It may sound rediculous, but if the driver is light you don't need to go as crazy with the car. I weight in at just under 60kg so thats probably worth 20-30kg i don't need to lighten my car by to match the average driver!

I removed the stone tray that sits underneath the engine, twas a heavy sucker, probably saved me a few kilos at least.
