I doubt the track champ is lighter than the langster. Its built for stiffness, with far less emphasis on weight saving.
track champ 1520 grams -
langster 1587g
so, with errors and optimistic weighing, different frame sizes etc, taken into account, theyre probably about the same.
although, i'd imagine the langs would come in at a quarter of the price of a new track champ frameset
maybe a quarter is optimistic, i'd pay 100 notes for a langster frameset with forks headset and bb - possibly. (before research)
