Seats, spare tyre, jacks, empty consoles, exhaust if you're keen, lighter wheels, less fuel and if you get really stuck, empty the washer bottle.

Quickest way to drop weight is find a skinnier driver. If my missus would have a crack I could pull 50kg's out in a heartbeat.

Enough to get you to the line, from one end to the other and back without having a starve.

ps - don't forget the drive home too!
