Corsa_Sport21 - Why wouldn't I want the best quarter mile time on track? And if you must ask I'm going to be putting in two fixed buckets at some time, just not now so the back seats will be out permanently.
SO, if I don't make it to crail again this year I'll know what it's capable of.
Future planning, see.

But why strip it for a few runs,then put all the interior back in after your done??I can see the point if u strip it,and keep it on a diet when out on the road.
Id rather have a car that i can take up the 1/4 wether it be with full road trim or only a single seat,then drive it on the road if its a daily driver without having to kid myself thats it a car that 'can' put down the times the way it sits.
Well I don't know how much better I can explain what I'm doing and why, so if you think that then fine

Well your either......
A: Stripping all the interior on a full time basis with no intention of putting it back in whether it be on the road or on the 1/4 mile.
Or
B:Stripping the interior just for the 1/4 mile,then fully fitting it after your done.Just for a pub talk 1/4 mile figure.
