Trying to figure out what you would need to do to get a car ready for the race track, like what features/addons you would need.
I know weight is the biggest part of getting a car ready, so getting rid of things like car stereo system and interior moldings. I heard you need a roll cage too, so what else would I need to do to the car to get it ready for the race track This post has been edited by coustoe: May 30, 2003 - 3:06 PM |

first thing u want to see what class u will be racing in, different class require different safty equip.
like here as long as ur under like 100MPH in the 1/4 all u need is a helmet. thats means u can completely gut ur car to save wieght. once u get over 100mph hour here i think u need 5 point racing harness and a toll cage. so check ur local track rules first befor u realy do anything to ur car. and slicks do help a lot, but i dont know how much they help in a FWD car. just my 2 cents hope it helps |
