Optima battery?
Do they not make one for our cars? I went on their site and the battery finder says they don't, but I thought people here have used them.

Don't buy those junk batteries. They don't make them for any specific vehicle, as far as fitting in the factory mounts properly.

Go fast, please.

I used one about 10 years ago and never had any problems with it. With that being said, I have heard that their quality has dropped significantly over the past years. There are batteries that are just as good if not better for less money.

This seemed like a good low weight option even though I was unable to buy it.

I used a red top Optima all last summer. I used group size 35 ordered from Summit for 156 dollars. It mounts the same as the stock except no support left and right. It's 11 pounds lighter I think. I now use a Braille 15 pound B2015 but haven't finished the car yet so can't say how it goes.
