It's so heavy that Neil Cragg won the 2013 offroad nationals with it :p

Most manufacturers are adding weight in the form of aluminium chassis' or brass suspension parts to improve the performance of their cars, so I don't think the weight is holding the car back. What is the car doing that makes you think lowering the weight would help?
