I'm going to the track Saturday, I'll prolly be borrowing a set of drag radials from a buddy and am tossing around the idea of stripping the interior out to see what it'll run like that. I wanna do it to see how much shit I gotta do to run 14.0's on the 27th for Import Wars. :?

Are you completely stripping it?

Not "completely". By stripping it, I mean taking out headliner, back seats, front passenger seat, door panels, front speakers (they suck anyways), center console, and maybe some dash parts and other plastic shit. I'll empty the trunk when I'm at the track, prolly bring tools and hopefully the drag radials. I'm leaving the radio in and back speakers cuz it covers up the horrible noises the car makes :lol:

Or I'll say screw it and run full interior, haven't decided yet. Depends on how motivated I feel Friday after 7 hours of work and 5 hours of class knowing I gotta work 8 hours Saturday morning before going to the track for 7 more hours....

But last summer I drove to PrP like 6 time which is about and hour and 10 minutes away by myself with no radio, strait pipe, and no insulation. Ear plugs rule!!

Ghey, they scheduled me to work 10 am - 8 pm instead of my normal 5 am - 2 pm shift. No track for me this weekend, and of course they are closed Sunday on my only day off this month. WTF.

I'm taking bets that chip will break something in his car before he can get a chance to get to the track.

Eh prolly, I'm hopefully putting a new head on next week and making a new intake manifold, and prolly won't hit the track till the 27th, might even have MS running the car by then. Lots can go wrong before then, but this thing likes getting beat on :)
