lol - Funny story with those: they're several years old, and were just "found" stowed away in a cabinet.

need is a strong word, but if the price is right...

my current one is out of a vw. it will park the wipers but it has on intermittent setting.

Don't mention christmas lights my dad will hunt you down in buy a few.... he's been known to stalking walmart, lowes and home depot for 50-75% sales on lights right after christmas.

I try to poop before going out on the track and I save at least a pound. Just figured I'd share another weight saving strategy.

Butters944 03-22-2012 12:49 AM

You could also dress very "light" haha and go barefoot. no helmet. remove the roll cage, that adds weight too.

hey Van,

How much for the lot? I'm always in need of spares as I will be rallying my car in the near future. :P

Several years old eh? Why were you driving around with those stored in the car, and what was the weight savings by removing them. j/k :icon107:

I highly recommend a good #2 before going on the track, just in case you come in too hot into a corner, you don't say "Oh $hit" then do it. Less of a problem if you have leather seats. :roflmao::icon501:

:roflmao::roflmao: you could barf to while your at it and shave at least half a
lb.


on the real i feel like every ounce removed is a step in the right direction all you need is 10 1LB items and your getting some where

if you dont use it lose it :thumbup:
