basically take the next step to full "race" even loose the bling seats for one more basic less baller seat. i keep being wishy washy on this or keeping it as the street car/ beast it is. loosing another 300-500 lbs would be sweet.

Default if it's a strip only car, then gut it!! if you want to drive it on the street with any type of

respect, leave the interior in..

Hell lose some of the sound deadener etc, but leave the interior, keep the car a joy to drive

Default i have already lost all the deadening in the doors, i still have it on the firewall

rear deck, floor and trunk. i run r-compounds on it all the time and try to only drive it to GTGs and if i want to go blast around the mountain roads. I mean i am cutting out my freaking roof and getting rid of all fenderliners, underbody rock shields, coating and possibly curtain airbags and head liner. this car is quickly becoming track only. the fact i am shopping for a tow rig also kinda locks that in.

its so fun to drive a car like this on the street. i think i am the kind of guy who would have even more fun if it was full race, window nets and all. i actually want to rally it in the winter also...

but thats another post all together
