Track Car Weight?

[TraqNmy350Z]

NO GUESSING PLEASE...If you don't know..please don't respond! I have been reading the threads and see lots of WAGS (Wild Assed Guesses). But I only want to get down to the brass tacks on what the actual weight and gear ratios are on the "350Z Track Car" only. The Track car according to Nissan a much lighter car than than other 3100lbs versions (possibly as low as 2900 lbs). I know for a fact, the reason why Nissan did not load the car up with leather, higher end stereo, and other options found on the performance or lessers versions is because they simply wanted to get the weight down on the car. The track car does have a lighter but beefer suspension although it is still made on the Altima/Maxima platfom. The gear ratios are different too (By the way, there in lies the biggest component, other than the HP/WGT ratio, to the 0-60 question others have been WAG'n at in other threads on this forum). 3150lbs is the bare bones weight of a unoptioned 350Z. A fully loaded "Perfomance Optioned" weights in closer to 3300-3400 lbs. There will be a HUGE difference between in weight between 350Z Track and the other fully (or lesser optioned) models.

Does anybody here have a clue because the dealers are friggin lost! Does anybody here really have any inside info on the 350Z Track?
