Wink SS1 VS. SS2 weight difference

does anyone know about how much heavier the SS2 will be over the SS1?

100 pounds generally costs a tenth in the quarter mile. if it is 200 over I want the SS1!

Good question, I'm going to guess about 100 lbs, mostly from the seats and the stereo.

The auto in the 1SS is the same as the auto in the 2SS. So if he is set on an auto (or manual) it won't change the weight from 1SS to 2SS.

good data info! the weights in the build sheets has notoriously been inaccurate but should give us a good idea of the difference if someone has the information on a 1SS!

I doubt it would add anything significant. Maybe 20 pounds. If that.
