While my personal favorite is the Leopard, with your weight, you may want to give a hard look at the Biland or the Italsistem. Most likely you will not make weight with any of the packages, you are a bit on the heavy side. But so what, there are plenty more just like you. The Italsistem carries more weight because its a more powerful engine. So your weight will not much of a penality there. The Biland has more torque. Since you are going to be over weight, the increased torque of the Biland will help you come off the corners better than if you were on a Leopard or similar package.
