Fat arse stock car drivers

[Chris "drooze" Wertman]

Uhhhhhhh, but the weight of the car with the 300lb driver in it going down the track is still 3500, while the car with the 170lb driver is still at 3370.

Correct ? How is getting weight out of the car (other than himself) going to do it ? If the combo has to weigh 3370 with the 170 driver weight included....it has to weigh 3370 with the 170 added for the driver, if I pull 130 out I dont make minimum weight.

Is this correct or is my understanding lacking and hence this whole thread a waste of bytes ?
