I have seen a couple of other MK I TTs on the tracks over here in Germany. They race as touring cars mostly.

Not much info, but stumbled on this. The pics don't show much at all, but I doubt it's actually a TT other than it's outward appearance. Interesting, nonetheless.
Clicky Pow
N/A, RWD, double front A arms, live rear axle. Odd creation.

1880lbs - I'd love to have that with my power![]()
As it were, I was pretty happy to see my car well under 3000lbsMy plan is to keep the TT when I move onto the next car, gut it and cage it, and make it a track whore...I wonder how light I could get it without sinking a ton of money into it!

Sex should be like a Civic; slow, obscene, and loud enough for the neighbors to hear.

What is that motor based off of? It's not the 20V. Either way, that is not bad power for N/A at all.

Brakes/rotors, 17lb wheels, cat-less/resonator-less exhaust (I weighed everything, and this actually drops a lot of weight), spare tire/tools, rear bumper ballast, one rear seat out at the time, about 50lbs of plastic crap and emissions devices, 17lb battery, aluminum charge air pipes, etc., etc. I've added a bit back in, with stuff like a larger turbo and intake manifold, but that's what it weighs with all fluids and an empty gas tank; with a full tank it would be around what your car is at.
With both rear seats out, some lighter front seats, and an AC delete there should be another 100lbs that can be saved. I'm not sure how daily driving a manual steering rack is, but I've thought about that as well. I'd really like to get a lot more off the front end!

Some pretty big omissions from your list:
- lighter wheels and tires (I saved over 50lbs there) - the added huge benefit of reducing rotating mass
- Ballast under rear bumper (if you have a 225 TT) - it's 35-40lbs.
- Lightweight calipers and two-piece rotors (more rotating mass here, but not very far out from the axis of rotation)

Planing on using the a/c??? If not take out the a/c box that has the evaporator and heater core in it. Thats probably 50 lbs in it self. Also remove the complete a/c system from compressor to condensor and all the lines.

Yes, also you can remove the blower motor and everything else connected to the a/c system.
