Track prep just wasn't there but I had a great time with a bunch of friends!

I must say this weight reduction thing has got me really curious as to where Id be at. And to take a step further I think it would be cool to gut it and add a roll cage, light weight racinging seats, even an aluminum hood. 4 street drag radials on each corner. Basically a full time street/drag car. Racing seats would accommodate the occasional passenger.
Probably cheaper set up than atp turbo upgrades. Lol!
Meh....imo if you want a dedicated race car... buy/build a dedicated race car. What makes these cars great is their sleeper power combined with being fully equipped. Take away all the luxury items and you just have a slow drag car. Imho.802SHO said:It most certainly is free and I think it's overlooked this day and age. I can hear the gears in my head turning lol
I think its a great idea. Id like to keep the weight off a permenant version. Yet functional. No back seats but with two front racing seats or something. Hmmmm. Like a professional race car interior you know? I'd give up some weight and ass massagers for that!

The crying will be when all the work is done and the PTU makes pretty noises 1/2 way thru the 1st pass (if it makes it that far with power to run 10's..)SHOdded said:There are always one-offs. Been done with a Gen 2, so why not Gen 4/5. Go for it, but complete the project. Don't be quitting halfway and crying/moaning about how difficult it is. LOL.

Jordan said:I mean there is something to be said for furthering the platform in anyway you can. I mean some people have spent thousands on built motors and set records. Why not start at the bottom see what the platform can do in relatively stock form and improve from there. A little weight reduction that takes tops of an hour to even take the exhaust completely out as well as the rear seat, front seat and the trunk junk isn't going to hurt anybody. I don't go to the track full interior because that doesn't provide the best times. If you are going to the track for a good time then why not get every little bit you can? I mean considering these cars can be had for under 10 thousand dollar anymore you are going to see more and more of these hosh posh slapped together projects coming up. It happens with every platform. My car has 115,000 miles on it and I don't specifically care about the resale or the condition of it as long as I am having fun with it. It's not brand new by any means. If something explodes along the way sit back analyze and improve on what you have. I would like to go methanol, hpfp, big turbo in the future as the car depreciates to the point of no return you may as well have fun along the way.
