ok i read the weight reduction sticky but was wondering if anyone actually cut the spare tire space out and screwed or welded a piece of sheet metal to cover the hole...would that affect anything with the body maybe twisting or anything of that nature..
thanks
ok i wont mess with it then figured if i save a good 50 or 80 lbs i would cut it out..thanks though..do you know were i can get lexan or do you use that home depot sutff...

we took almost 100 lbs by going to a carbon fiber rear deck removing all the hardware and cutting out the particial shelve and lexan rear window
Of course taking all the weight out of the back makes the cars balance that much more sckewed.
GLH, what is your % balance?
we are about 2 weeks away from having it all together our first track day is may 9th Ill let you know but we took over a 100 lbs from the from as well we should be under our 2700 lb limit so we can add to get the correct balance
I was just thinking about the same thing...
I will also remove that section and will replace with some superlight material:P
I don't want to kill the surprise, but once we are ready with my new setup...well it will be something new for sure
