Okay, I’ll go first I once gutted the rear seats and interior panels from my ‘98 Mustang GT to save weight, then replaced the trunk lid with a carbon fiber one from a junkyard Civic. Looked ridiculous, but shaved off enough pounds to notice the difference at the strip.
Now I’m curious: what’s the most over-the-top, “because race car” mod you’ve tried that somehow paid off? Bonus points if it made your ride look completely absurd but actually worked. Let’s hear those stories!
Oh wow, gutting a Mustang to look like a Civic how innovative. Guess if you can’t win on style, might as well go for weight savings.
Bless your heart, but some of us prefer performance over just sittin’ pretty. Lightweight wins races, sugar.
