I never understood the crazies that strip a daily driver out to make it accelerate faster. You could just buy a faster vehicle.

No way would I give up AC, or live with the noise caused by gutting the interior. Why would I prove I have no friends by removing the seats?

If I were tempted to ruin a car, leaving it noisy and only capable of hauling a single occupant for the sake of going faster, I'd just get a motorcycle... which I've done.

45mpg and 0-60 in 3 seconds.
