Back in the 80's there was a TV series on UK TV (Driving Ambition), where a woman decides she wants to do a bit of saloon car racing. She enlists the aid of a local mechanic and retired race driver to help her. After some persuasion he agrees, but promptly tells her to lose 30 lbs as "there is no point in me drilling holes everywhere to lose weight when you bring extra with you".
