stripping car out
Top Cat:
Its about his best personal time really its not who you race. He will be setting a time for him to beat next time he tries it. :drinking:
and its getting into the spirit :driver:

A good set of slicks will see you shave a good amount off your time, won't help your terminal though. You've got most of the main bits to strip, the rest would just be a few kg here and there - don't eat and have a big crap :happy2: lol

LOL, that's real dedication!!
Don't bother with the console/door panels/glovebox as they weigh nowt and will most certainly rattle like hell when you refit them.
The rest on the other hand weighs a bloody ton - whip it out! Haven't had the passnger seat out, but I think they're just a simple bolt job. The rear upright needs 2 types of star-drive (a 6 pointed and a 12 pointed) and can be fiddly.
As mentioned though launching is the key.
