drilling subframe ?

i know it would only save a tiny bit of weight, but i saw it done on wolf racing's bike, and every bit counts. my question is can i still ride with a girl on the back on the street? will a drilled subframe be ok for that, or is it only something you would do on an all out race bike where the subframe only has to support the tail section?
this is a pattern i started to draw on....

I would NOT ride anyone if it was drilled. Way weakened.
