I personally don't have a/c or power locks/windows, so that saves some weight for me, plus on a 20+ year old car you really don't need that crap. |
The carpets were one of the first things to go, there is nothing left in my racecar....nothing. I removed all the headlight assemblies and stuff because it does daytime racing and even traced the wiring back and removed it all. The dash is completely removed and all that is left is the gauges. I even cut the bracket that holds the jack out of the car. It is a tin can with a 1600 in it. It outcorners basically everything at our club even with normal road tyres on it. I have but one advantage over the more powerful cars and that is cornering so I try to press it as much as I can so I can rub i in Mr Subarus face
