Answer 1

Lower drag. But only up to a point where the additional weight becomes more of a burden than the reduced drag. I wouldn't expect you'd get much benefit actually, but if you say so then that's how it has to work, your only variables are weight and drag.

If I was looking this up on the Internet then I'd be just like you but less lazy, so if you need the link why not go do your own research?
