  1. So a little more than 10% faster acceleration is exactly what you would expect when losing a little more than 10% of the weight. a = F/m so if you lose 10% m (mass) you gain 10% a (acceleration)

  2. 23:45 how do you not take out those speakers mounted in the floor. They're right there!

    And a little advice from a fellow endurance racer: be nicer to your tranny and clutch. You're much more likely to see the checkers.

  3. I have a question for you and I hope you can answer it… Why are you destroying the original car components and where are you going with them

  4. too heavy rims, replace them with smaller and lighter, and your tires dont have enough grip which also decreased acceleration. also the handler could be replaced by a smaller lighter one.

  5. This is the first time in awhile a YouTube video was able to fully capture my attention for the entirety of the video

  6. There are some things in the engine bay that can also be removed or swapped for lighter parts. Brackets, tow/engine hoist hook, headlight washers, rain cowel covers etc.

  7. i was actually waiting for you to remove the doors, the trunk, the hood, all the glass, side mirrors, head lights, tail lights, bumpers, reduce fuel to minimum, then that would have made a lot of difference, specially the handling of the car around corners. The best thing in your video was the 0 – 60 times, and the braking disctances. Good job.
