Welp got started on the weight reduction for this time around. Planning on tin canning the car. Anything that I can get out is coming out. Already got the rear seat, all the trunk stuff and some misc plastic bits. Spent <15minutes on that stuff. Going to continue tomorrow after work and get some other things going. Then the scraping for little bits comes around. Want to do a glory run if I can before I go upgraded HPFP.
I'm very curious how much you can gain from this! Don't sell yourself short though. Isnt a glory run literally 1 pass down the track? Then its not a glory run if you do multiple passes. This is what test and tune days are all about IMHO and a shortcut to exceed the limitations of our inferior stock transmission. If this was a fully built car this would be the first ever 10 sec pass accomplished with stock transmission. Line up all the built SHO's and run them down the track. The lightest SHO will hold the title all day long. And if it's fully built its already exceeded its purpose of a family sedan so applying weight reduction at that point is no harm no foul in my book. Merely for title purposes that will be the one. And if it's all about title then one can dismiss whether or not it also wins in popularity. It doesn't matter if you win at full weight or lightweight.
