I changed from the stock heritage steel wheels to the Aluminum Iroc wheels, and I have a new axle-back exhaust. So I'd say Trixie (my camaro) has trimmed off 65 lbs. My question is do you think that there will be a noticeable difference at the track?

In the world drag racing the rule of thumb theory is for every 100lbs you loose, you will drop 1 tenth in time. But its not always about have much weight you take off , its where you take it off of , frt. middle, or rear that sometimes makes a difference.
