I'm sure that I'm older than you so I'll answer try to your question on the removal of 100 lbs. I play with weight quite a bit and I can actually remove a lot more than 100 lbs legally.

!00 lbs. ballast
50 lbs. remove 2nd 16 volt battery and brackets
10 lbs.1.5 gallon fuel out of 3 gal. cell
10 lbs remove large bias tires and replace with small radials

170 lb total

In my car that is close to .2 et. Not to bad of an increase and with a little help it can be done in 15-20 minutes.

By the way the NHRA Tech guys do some times police the "100 lb rule". I have been pulled over at least twice in the past several years and ask how I lost X amount of lbs. from one run to the next.

Take care
