what are you willing to give up


Recommended Posts

given that your car isnt daily driven but occasionally driven on the street (still fully legal) what comforts would you be willing to give up to get the most out of your ride at the track

I.E. interior panels, carpet, radio, door panels, and such like that

im trying to get my cars weight down to about 3000lbs even and i dont know if i can do it without giving up everything except a steering wheel and a seat granted i do have a lot of optional extras in my car that add a ton of weight

thanks

Radio is an easy one. I have no radio in my 78 monte carlo and im not sure what else is stripped out of it cause the last guy who owned it rigged everything up like an idiot. But radio was an easy thing for us. Car weighs around 3000 pounds atm, virtually untouched (by my dad and I anyway)

EDIT: I can't believe I didn't mention spare tire, that's a very easy one as well!

yeah my spare and all the tools have been gone for a long time i might eventually delete the ac but my girl is going to be pissed when that happens... honestly i wish i had a garage or shop i could work on my car in i would strip it completely down to sheet metal and put back everything i absolutely had to have

fuck the ac then. an alllll the deadening and bullshit. If it's a track car, creature comforts are useless lol. Just unnecessary weight.

im wondering how hard it would be to delete the power steering

according to a 1/4 mile calc ( i know its not accurate but its ballpark) i can have as little as 448.7hp at a weight of 3000lbs (my goal weight)
