    I've said it before and I'll say it again. Nothing was added. DRLs don't add weight, tyres are the same. All that was added was the two clips on the headliners. Those can't weigh 25kg.

    25 kilo's is really nothing it the overall car. A bit more acrylic sound deadner underneath, a slight change in the weight of a few components and your at 25 and you'd never know it looking at the cars. It could be anything, bumper bars, different spings, change in the guage of the exhaust pipe, slight change in the thickness of the glass? you'll never know and the only way to really find out is to fill both cars at the same pump to the same cutoff and drive to the same scale at the same time, and have the car on the platform and have the driver get out.
