Yeah man, just cover the water pump hole with a plug. You don't need it anyway. Think about it, now you're saving a lot of weight that was slowing you down in the corners. Your wheel spun out because you didn't have enough transmodial force keeping you bike up. Lose the weight and it'll increase the gravital morphology of the front end, resulting in an increase of transmodial force on the rear. It all works out for you in the end!@ Talk to shervin for some awesome ram air mods and frame lightening.
