For now it's mainly a toy. Just throwing some basic things at it, see what we can wring out of it. I may try that, unhook the battery for a couple minutes then make a pass. Kinda have to laugh, we still have the stock street tires on the car. Haven't even bothered with attempting a burn out. To be honest, how do you do a burnout with a FWD car? Do you plumb a line lok into the rear wheels or just set the parking break? I've never tried yet.
I forgot, the hubcaps may reduce the weight another 10 lbs ...
