Light weight

[nightrider]

does anyone kno of any ways to lighten the car without removing valuable stuff like spare tire and sound system, (i dont want to be stuck on the side of the road with no spare tire and no radio to listen to as i wait for help) lol:D

Carbon fiber or fiberglass hood. Saves about 30 lbs.
Lighter wheels could save about another 15 lbs./set.

Remove valve stem caps??? :lol:


Not much else without sacrificing comfort or safety that I can think of.
