Not sure if it's in any other state's papers, but in the herald sun today, pg 25, theres an article on a bloke that lifted a gem, ran a bit with it, then flipped it over. Apparently the gem was 500kg (a bit down on the 950kg Kerb Weight from the factory). Imagine a gem at 500kg, with a sr20det in it : power to weight = mmmmm

I'd scan it in if i had a scanner, perhaps a more fortunate melbournian could do it for the benefit of other hotgemini.com forum readers

If anyone knows how to get a gemini down to 500kg, it would have to be my uncle, his gemini race/rally cars were famous for this.

Fibreglass everything, cut out every part you don't need, I assume they ran perspex windows, but am not sure...

It would be more interesting to see him drive it somewhere, get out and pick it up.
