    What did you do with your sunroof? Just pull it, pull the motor and associated items, rivet on a sheet of aluminum and some rtv? I'm assuming a/c and power steering are gone? Do you still have heat and blower motor?

    Has anyone on this site gone on a good step by step "diet" recording what all this shit weighs?

    I need more info on your "uber light eta" that runs 15.4. What has been removed and mods? I don't know about you guys but I think a solid 15 second run with the eta is pretty good!

    I had a blast and will be out again with some tires that grip. It was good to see a couple of e30 guys out at the track, next time i would like to get into the 14s, any one have any idea how to get a little more power out of the eta. and we need to get a couple more guys out there.

    R/T isn't counted in 1/4 time though, I just wanted to get a clean launch and try not to spin too much.

    It should be, I'm losing a lot of time shifting and there's no traction in 1st AT ALL. I'm also not sure it's running quite right yet... I was consistently faster than an S52 318ti that weighed in at 200lbs less than me so I figure I was doing something right.
