I'm not amused by this article, despite the fact that I mainly work with power to weight ratio, and built lightweight vehicles.
It's not even remotely funny to suggest removing ones seat-belts in effort to save weight, no matter what the cause.
Also, I personally have never seen a car that lost 50 lbs from the seat-belts being removed. Try more like 20-30 with 5 belts, including anchoring hardware.
