    My point
    Loose the weight of the motors with linkage, lights wires. Combined with lightweight front bumper stripped out underhood maybe some CF. Removes enough weight where you can put a small fuel cell and keep the correct weight percentages at each corner to go fast fast on track track. It's what makes the "correct" challenge cars so fast :)

    I've been running LEDs in my headlights and fog lights for several years... Great improvement. But want to see the end result

    Seriously? I bait the police all the time and it's great to black out in those high speed pursuits. It's a way of life here in LA. We even have a FB page LOL :)

    Got bored with my 348 front end last winter and made this. A touch of Mangusta. Lights are LED. You can drive with the lower lights, or pop up the original lights, or run both. Best of all the very difficult to find original fog light/turn signal units are safely stored away.
