    stripped out track day cars

    hi guys right i am making my corsa xe into a track day car so want some pics of stripped out cars, so i can make my mind up with what i am going to do!

    also does taking doorcards,and carpet out make any difference on the track?

    If its a stripped out trackday car then just go through the car and anything that doesnt give you a benefit being in there versus being out of there for going round the track just get rid of it.

    Yes taking out carpets and doorcards makes a difference, but just remember its an entirely cumulative effect, each thing on its own would be pretty imeasurable.

    Track cars are rarely show cars, and for a reason IMHO!

    no i mean, use her just to go for a spin mate!! i have had a lot of stripped out corsa's but didnt know if it made much of a difference!

    all i know is when there stripped out they go very light on the rear after 120+

    Yes they do.

    You wont spend much time over 120 on any uk track though in reality with only an XE to power you.
