I have a question about weight reduction.

 

 Those of you that frequent the strip will know all too well that weight is an unnecessary evil, what have you done to remove as much of it as possible?

 

 I have a 4 motion MK4 and it is a heavy beast, even after stripping loads of things out of it, what else that is necessary can I remove from the car?

 

 I don't run it on the strip, I use it on the track.

Is it a road car too? Do you have a cage? I've cut the door skins out, removed everything pretty much that's not a drivers seat, removed all the sound deadending (fun job) and gone lexan windows. Cutting the spare wheel well out and replacing with a ally sheet is supposed to be good for 20kg too which is on my to do list. Depends how far you want to go with it. Obviously you can always look at carbon parts too.
