launch will be more cruicial than your weight. But taking out back seat can be helpful. Except if you cant handle the extra power, you will just spin.

The spare and jack are a start. Any bit helps, thats probably about 40 lbs. or so.

Take out back seats and remove rear bumper and like others said, 1/4 or so of gas.

I've put on 40 lbs. since last March. Not cool for so many reasons...Driver weight is just as real as any other weight in the car.

Take a dump first, too.

the only thing that will help him is if the driver of the IS350 fukks up somehow, but that can't happen since it's so damn easy to shift in those things lol

other than that, he doesn't have a chance...
